I saved a lot of work files on those floppies, always with the thought that they might become useful someday. As time progressed, we have storage on CDs, USB thumbdrives and external hard disks, as you have mentioned. I no longer use the files I stored on the floppies but I still keep the disks anyway. Really must make an effort to throw them out one of these days...Fadhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091828414987087822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086109446112192763.post-91871058194735764752011-10-21T11:09:42.625+08:002011-10-21T11:09:42.625+08:00I used to keep most of what I thought to be import...I used to keep most of what I thought to be important.. until last 10 years or so that my office workstation keep changing every one or two years..

As I said, I'll get rid of stuff to make space for new ones. It's like hard disk memory space in our computers... old files get deleted only if memory becomes low. But the price of external hard disks is not too expensive nowadays, so why delete? Just copy or backup. Or better still, send to dropbox account.Fadhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091828414987087822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086109446112192763.post-88549226675381229362011-10-20T07:18:15.827+08:002011-10-20T07:18:15.827+08:00Dear Ulat,

I still have my copy of London A-Z. Well actually, not really my copy but belonged to someone who left it behind. In the the inner front cover is written : This book belongs to Anuar Ramli / Ruslaini M. Noor, Norwich City College.<br /><br />The price on the book is 50p.<br /><br />Thanks for dropping by and commenting.Fadhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091828414987087822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086109446112192763.post-1328651417960220742011-10-20T07:10:46.466+08:002011-10-20T07:10:46.466+08:00Salam Fauziah,

I like to keep my notes because there is always this feeling of I might need to use them sometime, somewhere.

No doubt about that ...OMG, you really ARE a keeper! No doubt about that at all!<br /><br />Me, I am a <b>thrower</b>. I don't like having too much 'stuff' around, and if something has not been used for a while, I will 'throw' it out: as in, give it away to someone who may need it; or send it someplace for recycling or whatever.<br /><br />I don't buy lots of stuff. My furniture has been with me for close to 10 years now, and I think it's still fine. What I'm talking about is stuff in boxes, in drawers, in cupboards, and stuff so covered with dust that you barely remember you have it - THOSE, I will throw.<br /><br />Btw, my husband is a <b>Keeper</b>. Yes, we're not perfectly matched in that way ;)Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10795820209657289652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086109446112192763.post-38742396564499483922011-10-18T20:39:29.754+08:002011-10-18T20:39:29.754+08:00Hahaha)) Kita serupa!
