2009 Today I threw Away ................................



Sunday evening is time to "make-up" the garbage for Monday's collection.

I've just thrown two items away:

a) The 'Audubon' "bird" clock that came from my mother's apartment not long before she died. Not an old clock or even that expensive, witness the quartz movement that ate batteries far too fast. But it WAS one of the few momentoes I have/had of her.

b)My old R.A.F. flashlight (torch). I've had it for over 40 years! Technically stolen, I suppose, from H.M. the Queen. Oh well. I could have held it up and said to folks, "I had this in the Air Force!" But I realise such claims aren't really taken seriously, so out it went.

What we see as little treasures one day ............................. ? Then in the harsh reality of flying time.
