PERFECTLY GOOD teapot placed by bin in Stoke Newington, London.

I guess by placing it to the side the discarder was saying to it, "hey teapot, you're no use to me anymore but I know you'll make someone else happy. Hopefully you won't be left out here long. Seeya." Fear not discarder/teapot fans, our Steve took her home and now happily makes his morning brew in her.

PS. Sorry to our regular reader(s) - bin real slack of late. Will try to get back on track. Got some cracking international submissions to share soon. One of our lads is on a proper Bin Around The World Tour right now.
