  20 socket and a BS1363 plgu. O and a BS1362
cartridge fuse. Heck, I even
 keep defective connnectors as sometimes you an make one good one from the
 bits of 2 defective ones.  
     Can someone imagine the house of Tony? :)  
I suspect it's much like the houses of most people here. There are 
classic computers, spares for classic computers, tools, test instruments, 
etc everywhere. And books of course.

I really don't see why it's so odd to keep bits of broken connector. I 
don;t know if you know the UK mains plug, but the pins are quite 
substantial pieces of brass, which are useful for making mounting blocks, 
etc. And I can't beleive you've never needed a spare contact for some 
type of connector which you could take from a broken one.

Quite apart from not having moneu to waste, it's not easy to jsut go out 
and buy such thigns any more. Having the right bit in the junk box saves 
a lot of time.
