I am a collecter of many things, Coins, Banknotes, Magazines, Newspapers, Books, Military Badges, Buttons, Medals etc, Bottles and anything else that takes my fancy.

I love anything old and spend hours trawling round Bootsales, Collecters Fairs, Antique shops and Bric-a-Brac stalls in search of more treasure. Since i got my computer and discovered Flickr i have found it a great place to share my obsession, and made some good friends along the way. I love metal detecting and enjoy roaming fields and woods in search of buried treasure (usually rubbish) but its all good fun. Thanks to everyone who has shared my collection, hope you enjoyed it as much as i do, i have certainly enjoyed yours. I have one golden rule on Flickr, that is i only post things that i own, if it's in my stream it's in my collection, this is not a critisism of those who don't do the same, it's just my own self discipline.

Like my collection, my stream is a varied assortment of things i enjoy, and i am trying to build something that others may enjoy too. Love Flickr and all my Flickr friends, hope to make more.

Loving 'old stuff' as I do, I always find your photos interesting. Your time spent going to car boot sales etc has netted you a great collection and so generously shared by you with the Flickr community as well as the general public. :-)

A lovely, generous man. I've enjoyed his stream of fascinating coins and vintage ads for a few years and have had the luck of becoming his friend. His warmth and humor brighten my time here on flickr, and I and it would be much poorer without him. Thank you old school paul.
