One of my Grandad's sayings was "Don't throw anything away. If you don't have a use for it keep it 7 years. If, after 7 years, you haven't had a need for it, keep it 7 more".

I abide by that and my wife hates it. 😁😁😁

i abide by what is called the carpenter's rule....it makes no difference how long you've had it, and not needed it....if you throw it away - you will need it in three days...

Or, you trip over it for 10 years and when you go to look for it you never can find it, so you go out and buy a new one THEN it turns up three days later. That's why I've just decided to start throwing things away and buying new. I'm tired of seeing them lay around for decades not getting used while I constantly trip and fall over them. Or have them fall out on the floor when I'm looking for something else. smile
