    Given that cuckoos like people enjoy collecting ,I thought that this is the right place for people to discuss what they collect :) .
    A lot of my family members / friends collect different things including,stamps ,coins,matchboxes , buttons ,football programmes,postcards ,beer glasses ,harmonicas etc.

    I collect boardgames and books ,and my collection takes up most the attic.my wife is waiting for the ceiling to collapse.:D
    I used to collect beer bottles of different types and got up to 400 before my wife asked me kindly to get rid of most of them.
    So how about you ,do you or any family members collect anything?.
    Dead bodies and earwax aside.

    I have a massive DVD collection. Literally taking over the house. I'll have to clear some presses to store them in some day soon.

    I used to collect football shirts...I have about 30/35 mostly from the 80's and 90's and all Man United ones. They're in bags now in a box on top of the wardrobe but a few are worth well over a hundred quid.

    I like to collect breath, I keep it in a containment units of my own design and construction. Never my own. NEVER. I have about 1,500 in my collection, (1,200 natural, 300 last). You are never alone when you lay on the breath. Once in a while I release one, it nourishes me, I no longer need food or water, just people, to...to share in the joy of collecting our most unappreciated resource. If interested a private viewing can be arranged, come alone! Breath and I shall find you.
