From America, a life-sized hollow plastic penguin (purchased by me); Portugal, a life-sized straw crow (gift); Eastbourne, a ceramic teapot holder with a picture of a Yorkshire Terrier in a blue coat on it (gift). I don't drink tea, I can't stand small dogs.
A very ugly, kangaroo skin & fur dilly-bag that my husband seriously thought I would use as a handbag. I put it on my head and threatened to join the communist party.
