What I Threw Out Today

I began September 21 2010 - To record of some ephemera I had collected before disposing of them

Still no C-BOX, but it's comin'!

I took the picture of the stuff that I removed from the potential C-B0X, but my camera-phone is downstairs, so I'm too tired to go down for it.
The empty box is on the landing, so its getting near. I just have to organize a plastic bag to put the stuff in - bit by bit, day by day, 'slowly by slowly' as my friend Michael G would say ....
2 X ENVELOPES
These envelopes were for sending rolls of film to be processed. You had to pay for the processing, but they gave you a free film, which of course tempted you to take more picture and you would give them more business. It was an Irish processing company - I suspect it may have now gone out of business in Ireland. The expiry date for the FREE FILM offer is given as December 1992.
BROCHURE
I think I probably picked up the brochure about the candles at a craft fair. I thought these were beautiful works. Later my sister gave me and Tony a slender version each for one of our anniversaries. They were far too beautiful to burn, so they ornamented the top of the piano for years. When I took them down recently to make room for the CCTV equipment as part of my degree show, I was a little sad to see that the beautiful colour was somewhat faded. However, the beautiful curling shape is still there. I have now put them away safely somewhere, only trouble is I can't remember where I put them.
