I have worked in psychiatric secure units, and seen a few things !! You are guilty of forgetfulness, and carelessness, as we all are occasionally in this hobby. No, I would not say you are going insane, unless you want to sell me your collection for £10 and you pay the postage.

I bet no one has left a programme in the envelope and torn it to shreds then threw it in the bin before Crying or Very sad

Over the years I've bought 3 copies of the 48/9 Rhyl v Wrexham Welsh Cup programme...each time thinking it was from 49/50...doh! Sad

Not to shreds but I did manage to rip the top off a programme that way once.

I've also managed to buy multiple copies of some of our games against Exeter from 73/74 and 74/75, when we met them in the league and league cup in both seasons, and I kept getting confused about which ones I had and which I didn't!

You all think you have problems, I once went to see Wolves Reserves play Barnsley Reserves many years ago, only to arrive 24 hours before the actual game!
And to add insult to injury I don't and never have supported either team.
And before anyone asks, no I did not go the following day! Crying or Very sad

I remember about 30 odd years ago storing about 30/40 old ten bob and £1 notes (that I had bought at auction) in a large football annual to keep them flat and in good order.

While I was at work my girl friend at the time came round and 'tidied' up the house with her mother and chucked out all the old annuals because they were cluttering up the bedroom!

She only told me 3 weeks later!!! Mad
