I found an old spell checker and some capital letters. I don't need them so can send them to you if you like.

went up into my parents attic the other week. my entire childhood is in there and i plan to reclaim it!

my scalextric is there, the one my dad had in the 50's and handed down. there's my huge collection of n gauge model railway [including an expensive mallard], boxes and boxes of 80's/90's beano, dandy and whizzer & chips, my mint boxed dinky/corgi collection including the entire chipperfields circus set, my cowboy fort and a box of lead cowboys & indians, and my favourtie soft toy - a yellow dog with a huge nose and red spots. loved that dog i did!

gotta love my parents for keeping it all, brought back some memories and the cars/trains must be worth a fair bit.

actually yeah you've just reminded me - I found a snooker que worth about £250 in my loft. Had an email from someone interested in buying it and completely forgot about it! Must go find their email...

I TELL people the large bell in our porch was found in our loft and may well be the original bell from when it was a school. In fact I bought it off Ebay for £13 about 5 years ago.

I found what I believe to be one of the sets from the film arachnophobia including the spiders in mine. Also found some nice itchy fibre stuff as well biggrinbiggrin
