I'm sorry I don't run alongside the Tom Loughbridge non sentimental theory, because I genuinely value every replica that I have which I think is 67 including the Manx. Why?.....because every one is a memory of the race, I find I can flag up the information just by seeing, say 10th place 1985 FII, or 6th 1988 Production etc etc. My brother Tony is a non sentimentalist, but all his are on show, as are David's nine winners replicas.
What was it all about if all you do is sling them in the skip? Mine are not actually on show where they can easily be seen, but they can be found if you look carefully.
To be fair I've won a few golf trophies this year, and they ARE a nuisance. My trials ones are too, except the special ones like the Scott Trial Spoons, the Scottish Six Days Tankards, and the International Six Day Medals.
