I got fined for putting something similar into my recycling!

Ah well, we all live and learn.

Perhaps we need an art expert to survey and tell us what is worthy?

I refuse to suggest someone should get a grant for it.

I've got a Charlie & Di wedding mug, 1981 (slightly chipped). I reckon it is worth a small fortune now. So who amongst you is willing to make the investment? I'll start the bidding at a hundred quid.
