I used to collect stamps and also coins from across the world when I was young. It gave me quite a lot of pleasure. A few years back gave it all to my nephiew who always enjoyef looking at them. These days I don't seem to collect anything and need inspiration to start again. What do you collect, if anything.

Not me, but a family friend collects old bottles and old advertising signs. Fascinating stuff.

I've got the full set of round British pound coin collection, half the 50p collection, and a collection of empty KitKat wrappers but I don't think I'll keep the latter as heirlooms.

"Russian Nesting dolls.

Depends, I buy a lot second hand so some have four and others have more. I keep them inside each other rather than displaying them all as I don’t have the space and it saves on the dusting

Plates, some can be pretty rare but look nice with the detail ornaments/ figurines (miniature) can also be pretty rare and valuable

Yes I have lots of cds but thats another story. Also lots of books. I did start collecting tie pins at one point but for some reason I was not enjoying as much so stopped and got rid of them

I have abit of an obsession when it comes to physical media. I buy VHS, laserdisk's, dvds, blu rays and 4K's. I tend to lean towards horror and sci fi but I'm a massive film and tv buff but my collection is honestly giant and too a point it's fulling an entire bedroom and growing. We are moving home in the next month or so and having to get a out building to house it all when we move as it's taking up too much space. I may need help!

Jack.

I have honesty tried to get rid of things as I have the same film on VHS, dvd, blu ray and 4k (halloween 1978) and I can't bring myself to get rid of any of them and as sad as it is i will fancy watching a film but the VHS version one month and next time it might be the 4k and I convince myself they feel like different films depending on the format haha its madness and I know it but it would pain me too much to get rid.
