Elvis watching his 1968 comeback special. Fancied him ever since I saw him in Las Vegas in 1973. I thought he was even more handsome in the flesh. Anyone still "do" it for you?

I remember the day he died-my sister was diagnosed with pneumonia and arthritis that day, (aged 6) my dad was at kitchen table crying - I thought it was for my sis, but he turned and said Elvis is dead. My Mam whacked him with the frying pan-same sister loves Elvis, all the paraphernalia, the old vinyls belonging to my dad.. he's still alive and kicking in this...

I know, lardhelmet! The "stuff" we throw away unthinkingly!
or others did it for us
Freddie singing "Love of my Life" always gets me especially at the end when he says I still love you.
That's much worse, DaisyNonna.

I am always seeing


stuff on Flog it and Antiques Roadshow, which my mum threw away as "tat" that's now worth money.
I was leaving home (not permanently) to go to University. Cleared my bedroom and put all my treasures (including exam certificates) into a trunk so my parents could use my room for guests.
Returned home after my first term to find that my mother had got rid of the trunk without telling me. Eighteen years of my life wiped out.
The land-fills are veritable treasure-troves!:)
Daisy that is awful.
Loved Elvis. Can't believe he would have been turning 80. He will always be 42.

Oh Daisy - that's awful. Never saw any of my school stuff after I left. She probably chucked it on the bonfire on 5th November.

That's just awful your stuff dumped, what I totally dislike about the programs like dickinsons real deal etc., is young/middle aged people selling war medals, someone put their lives on the line to be awarded those medals and it's sickens me to see them getting sold off as tat...maybe pay toward a holiday or put up a bit of wallpaper with the cash received

I'd forgotten he was only 41 when he died Brinjal. So young.

I've got some bits my dad brought back from WWII which I would never sell.
Oops, I just realized I said "land-fills": I think that term is sort of synonymous with "tips" in the UK...Am I right?
Thanks for understanding caran. Not easy to apply for jobs without requisite paper proof in those days. Most regretted was the toy lamb made for me by a POW not yet sent home after the second world war. Too precious for me to take away with me.
I'd throw Lee Remick and Doris Day into the recycle bin.... and just keep recycling!
Daisy you have made me think a bit. After I left home when I got married(first time) I don't remember seeing any of my stuff. I must have had mounds of paper work from school. Never thought of it before. I know my bedroom was cleared out so my younger brother could have it.

Stuey- yes that's what a landfill is over here, What is it over there?
I was never keen on Elvis, either his singing or his appearance.
