Friday Photo - The Ashes
This is a replica of the Ashes, the smallest professional sporting trophy in the world. You can't quite tell the scale, but it's only about a handspan tall. This particular replica is owned by my Dad, who is fond of telling the story of its origin, and simultaneously dismayed that other Australia vs England sporting events call themselves "the Ashes" too.

PS - I know it's not the official trophy of the competition.
PPS - But the official trophies now given are the same size.
