Treasured possessions

I picked up the first Dragonlance book on holiday in Pitlochry. I was twelve. Can I really get rid of a trilogy of books I've been carrying around for nearly two thirds of my life?

Similarly, I have the complete Lensman series - I'm not sure I could ever bear to actually read them again. But get rid of them? After I tracked them down one by one through car boot sales and second-hand bookshops? Are you insane?

Anyone else got books they'll never read again, or films they'll never watch, but they can't bear to let go of? (Oooh - Paperhouse. I'm never watching that again, but I have to own it.)

Hey There !!!

If you are considering getting shot of the lensman series I would like to borrow them first, I haven't read them for ages (I was about 10 I think).

Since I now reside in the same city as you exchanges should be easy - you could borrow some of mine if you fancy ( I have about 200 dvd's too).
