I've stolen this topic from the radio.

Mine was to go out to buy a new fridge but I ended up coming home with a 50inch plasma television and no fridge!

A small man from a circus that was passing through our town. We released him after 4 years. I think that kind of thing would be frowned upon these days.

A 1961 sunburst Fender Stratocaster. It was heavily used but and sounded incredible. It's not the oldest Strat I own or the most expensive but at the time I wasn't.looking to buy one, this one came along and I think I played it for all of 2 minutes before I bought it!

Not expensive, but definitely on impulse,

I bought 3 Tye-dyed, Rob-Roy style shirts,,,,, that looked so cool in the shop, I just had to have them….!.

That was 9 year ago and I’ve still not worn them… !!!
