Here's the latest addition to the collection at the Museum of Miniature Found Objects. It's a miniature Easter egg, found on Eltham Common at 3.01pm on Sunday 15 May, as part of an Easter egg hunt. The donor, Reginald McGuiver, was pursued by a group of angry parents as he ran from the park.

The Museum staff have been thrilled to hear recently of another similar museum in Mijas in Spain, the Carromato de Max, whose collection contains some of the smallest objects in the world, such as Churchill's head sculpted from a stick of chalk and a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper painted on a grain of rice. The Museum of Miniature Found Objects looks forward to forging links with this sister collection.
