    Thank you! I was thinking of listing it to pass it on because I have way too many bowls and pottery... But it's been sitting on my desk and looking very pretty and I enjoying looking at it... :bucktooth:

    Hahaaa I'm about short enough that the chairs would be perfect. Not a fan of chicken nuggets though. :playful:

    At 5’8”, I barely fit in the chair but they always serve the kids first & we usually also get ice cream & the desert. Plus most kids give me their salad I give them my bread. I don’t eat nuggets either.

    I think people in the poorer areas are more careful, possibly. But also, in richer areas, it’s the top end phones and expensive watches too.

    No one would bother nicking mine. I bought it in 2014.

    Christmas Fair yesterday, got there an hour late but found the silk scarf for 50p and the books were £1 each. The Chaucer is dated 1884.
    Poetry is signed edition.

    The best things I found yesterday were a free homemade cookie and cheap gasoline, despite going out before 8AM. You've got me beat.

    I had a better day last week, whole tray of jumble stuff for £5. The hip flask is desirable old Sheffield plate. The horn spoons I believe are used for eating caviar, (won’t get used in my home). Silver bangles & bracelet and unmarked little box. 8 Plated shell place markers, Miracle earrings and some nice vintage glass baubles and the dog in the bonnet was £1. I think the yellow plastic things came off a bracelet.

    Thanks, that’s going to my neighbour. I don’t ever have any Christmas decorations put up, only cards. It’s just too cluttered here and tinsel etc would make it look worse.:(
