What have you had for years and for how long.

I had a pair of timberland boots that cost me what seemed like a fortune in the 90's £80 I think

Only died a couple of years ago,

I have a book of fairytales that I got as a christmas present from my parents when I was 7. It was my favourite book as a child and I've kept it all these years.

Ive got coats and trainers that are up to 20 years old, they fade out and come back, but i just keep wearing them either way.

I also have my original SNES and alot of the games i got at the time, with boxes, manuals and maps if they had them.

I have a doll and teddy my grandad bought for me for my 1st birthday, and another he bought for me when I was 7.

A bit newer than that though, I'm still using a slow cooker that was bought for me as a wedding present in 1993

"I’ve a lot of my mums furniture. From the 70s. Very trendy now. "

My mum always said keep things because they always come back in fashion in cycles.

Amazing that some of the things we skipped a few decades ago are fashionable now and some are worth money.

I found an old "red led" watch from the 70's that's collectable now

I've had a pair of brown leather vans that I have has since I was 16. First thing I brought myself out of my first wage packet. Haven't worn them for years, just can't seem to throw them out.

They used better steel I think, I've got old disston saws, estwing hammers and they just feel better in the hand.

Plus the nostalgia feeling

See what I mean. Just because it's a little worn. Don't mean it's no longer good.
