Teapot

Assuming you take 'collecting' to mean; 'own more than two pieces of crockery in the same colour and from the same manufacturer'.
Then it turns out that I'm collecting a crockery pattern...
(And there's a sentence that would leave my twenty year old self astounded.)
I bought a teapot which was reduced due to the chip on the top of the lid yesterday. Having done a quick search I've found that a replacement will cost almost four times as much as I paid for the teapot.

Some days my life is so rock and roll it's scares me.
