My mate's mum...
..kept herself 'happy' by continually ordering stuff for the kitchen from catalogues. They lived in a smallish terraced house - the mother, two sons and her coach driver husband who only showed up once a fortnight or so. Pleasantly stoned there one day, myself and a couple of friends decided we'd count exactly how much was in that kitchen. If memory serves there were 127 mugs (and more in boxes in the attic apparently), 32 wooden spoons (and as many rolling pins), twenty-odd teapots, several bread making machines, and enough crockery to run a large, busy restaurant. It was too daunting a task to count all the cutlery but I reckon they could have lived for months without ever needing to wash up. And then there were the saucepans, colanders, whisks, tea strainers, chopping boards, etc,etc, etc...

are you sure
you didn't get stoned and accidentally end up in the warehouse at Argos?

it was silly of her to order 10,000 spoons
all she needed was a knife
