Are you a collector ?

Sheep!

Started as a 'joke' over 20yrs ago when I moved to Sussex.

Symbol for Derbyshire is the ram, an employee bought me a little ram as a present, it just became a thing over the following years, birthdays & Christmas.

I've got a few pieces of Moorcroft, not many, about 10

I've also got a display cabinet full of minerals in their raw form

I don't like them if they are shaped or polished, they need to be raw

And, I'm with Dotty on the trainers, again less than ten but definitely more trainers than I have feet

Little things. As in cute little ornament type things not gentlemen’s appendages just to be clear

Also stuff with candy skulls on, I can’t resist. I used to collect Betty Boop stuff but it got a bit ridiculous.

Cooking books. I don't really use them and if I do its just for inspiration.

They have filled my shelf up and look fantastic.

Most of them are from charity shops and I have saved a small fortune on the original price.

Oh my favourite shoes, and bags too

I won't admit how many pairs I have.

I even have pairs that don't fit me - spotted in charity shops, so just had to be bought

Ive got a lot of Lilliputs as well, a couple of low numbered limited editions. I approve of your decision on where to leave them. Im going to do the same as im also childless and it will stop any arguements between my cousins.
