When storing your collection in boxes in the loft, make sure you keep them all together. I have just spent around 3 hours looking through the same 4 places in my parents house and about 20 boxes of stuff 4 times over to find the final 5 pieces of my collection. Well, I hope it was the final five! As a reward for my persistence, there was a 6th animal that I had forgotten I owned cheers!

Over time I changed what was on display as I am a collector of a few different things. I stored the bulk together in my loft but kept a few favourites on display, which then gradually got whittled down. When this happened they weren't put back with the origional collection but scattered in random places for me to never be able to find easily again! Luckily I had pictures of nearly all of them so I could check against that.

Now time for rest with the family and a lesson learnt lol!
