I am sick of this obsession with season china which seems to infect people like a bug come every Christmas, Easter, etc. Next thing you know, we will have MayDay China, August Breaks China. and the like. What does it tell you?
That the owner of said china has a really large kitchen with enough cupboard space to store china for every kind of festivity?
That you have so much money that when you have bought your "daily" dinner and breakfast set, your "NICE" dinner and breakfast, and coffee and tea set, you progress to Christmas dinner sets and cake platters with cheerful mice with funny hats on, and little mini santas eating porridge from a wooden tray perched on a fence. Then you opt for garish yellow and light green china, with little ducklings and eggs. WHY?
Why does the world NEED yellow and lime china with ducks and eggs? You use it for ONE WEEKEND of the year?
Get a grip, and stick to plain china. No ducks. No mice. No little pygmes with long white beard and pots with porridge.
and whats the deal with the toby jug?
ok, I feel better now.
As you were.
