WHY CANNOT I THROW IT OUT?

I bought myself a new dictionary awhile back (I use a dictionary all the time, it is like a Bible to me) but I keep referring back to my good old faithful pocket size Collins Gem Dictionary that I have had for well over 10 years. The pages have fallen out, been stuck back together with sticky tape many a times & it is held together by a lackey band. Why can't I just biff it? Maybe because it is small instead of big and bulky like my new one?

My well used dictionary!

  1. I have a favourite dictionary too! Mine is from when I was in primary school...it is sad looking but not as sad as yours Jen. I keep mine coz when I am looking for a word, I ALWAYS find it in my 'old' dictionary...but not in the newer versions.
    Oldie but a goodie!

  2. True JoJo, the old faithful dictionary so does have the word in it that your looking for, not like the new ones they seemed to have missed some out!
