I don't mean phones and computers etc with "memories", I mean items that you have that bring back memories - maybe of people who gave them to you, or places that you visited to acquire them.  Memories that only you have, attached to items that would be pretty ordinary to most people.  

I've posted elsewhere about the dining chairs with sagging bottoms that we bought in 1975 in St. Ives. I can "see" the shop where we bought them, it was so small that they only had 2 chairs in stock and had to order another 2 for us, which we collected on the next trip to the in-laws in their old fisherman's cottage in Virgin Street. I dreaded going there. It was a 5 hour drive on a Friday evening after work, heavy traffic on the motorway, everyone heading to Cornwall for the weekend, and we'd have to repeat it in the opposite direction on Sunday evening to be back in time for work for Monday. 
Today, we chopped up 3 of the chairs but there is one left, to bring back those sweet and sad memories of days of yore, 48 years ago. 

Share your special memories please. Big Grin
