You should have come to say Hi
I run the reunions and you would have seen that pic on the big screen.
Mine are probably my photo with Ian Hunter (when my brother hired him to perform a private concert for his 50th), my signed Rant CD by Ian Hunter, and my Fender Strat. OK I know nearly everyone's got one but it's still cool to me.

Oh right, I have probably seen you around Trills or some of the other rock places then as well. Hehe, didn't realise that.
Dont really have many "cool" things, quite proud of my whole rig, especially the Samsung 22" pebble.
Got a shell from an AK47 I fired in Riga and a rather substantial selection of stolen ale pint glasses
Id be lost without my pictures of times gone by but they are not exactly cool, just mean a lot to me.

Ditto.
Debatable whether it's really THAT 'cool' or not but it's probably the 'coolest' thing I own all the same. I don't own anything genuinelly and irrefutably cool.
Cost me 12 euros, then the price of an adapter and an old Athlon PC in there running mame.
Extremely cool
I'd love one of those but they're all so extremely expensive... but 12 euros, bargin!
Well done!
I've got a personalised signed photo from Darth Vader... not got a photo of it, though, so you'll just have to trust me.
Also have one of these in my bedroom....
Genuine USA Fender Strat, a '57 reissue (that photo isn't of mine but it's the same thing). And the Line 6 Pod 2.0 that I bought on the weekend is getting a thumbs-up from me at the moment.

I didn't think I'd win the ebay auction when I bid, I lived in Germany at the time and it seems that cabinets are (or were) a lot less popular over there than here. It did add quite a bit to my removal bill when I moved back to the UK in 2004 though.
It's a 'TV ideal' cabinet which pop up quite a lot on German ebay, it uses an arcade standard called JAMMA which allows you to plug in different game boards or you can get a PC to JAMMA adapter and chuck a PC in and run mame. You do get some bargain jamma cabinets in the UK so always worth looking out for them if you want 3000+ arcade games for very little effort.
The Packard Bell Microphone. Had it since my 1st computer back in 1995? Still works perfectly.
If you look closely at the tail end you can see marks of sellotape that were used to stick to the side of the monitor for natural stability.
U can't beat it.

That's the very COOLEST thing you own? Saying that the coolest thing I own is probably a laminated scorecard from my one and only century in cricket (run out on 113).
