What is the coolest thing you own?

I’ve a storage locker full of cool stuff I’ve forgotten I even have, can’t wait to one day have the time and space to sort it, there’s definitely some nice cymbals in there. Probably the coolest thing I can remember is a metal model of the Soviet Buran space shuttle with rocket with an engraved wedding invitation on it that I picked up in an antique shop in Kazakhstan, my father in law loves space stuff so he’s got it on long term lend.510DBF9B-A86A-472C-A007-0850C26CDD8F.jpeg
 
I have a drawer is full of sh1t like that. Definitely not cool Roofie. 😂
Its the only mobile I have and I use it every day.
Its often a talking point.

"Does it have the snake game"
"They last forever"
"You never have to charge them"
"House brick"
"I had one of those".

Certainly "cool" - if I drop it, it doesnt break.
When it falls down the bog or in a puddle - it just dries on the radiator.
When everyone else is moaning about needing to charge their fancy iphones - I dont have that problem.

Its "cool" alright 😎
 
We all have loads of cool stuff, to us. I have a 1970 scalectrix with mini coopers and the front wheels steer. A shed load of hornby stuff. A Vic 20 and atari lynx. We have loads of old phones that still work one being the Nokia 3310. Snake wasn't the best game on that, the bag game was.

The only indulgence I have is my car, a 2004 Rx8.
 
Probably my IWC pilots watch Petronas edition.

If only for the fact a couple of people thought the strap was "Tiffany Blue" when really it's "Malaysian petrochemical company turquoise"
 
A small league cup trophy model - around 3 inches tall - along with red and white ribbons. It's heavy as hell don't know what it's made of. It comes on a little plinth with green felt that it sits on. Pride of place in the kitchen, look at it every day and remember our glorious day in Cardiff and the look on my dad's face when we won. He got it from Lithgow's auctions for a fiver about 10 years ago and gave it to me, been the most precious thing I own ever since.
 
Boro wise,I have my ZDS cup final programme and ticket signed by most of the players, who we met at a service station on the way home. Non-football or Sport, Factory Records Box Set and My Great Uncle's WW II campaign medals.
