I have a gravy boat but it's a chipped pyrex jug with all the measurements worn off the side.

I only go to Waitrose to use the loo.

We have Pot Noodles for tea today.

Suncottage · 27/01/2011 16:41

I have teapots, tea cosies (plural) and individual silver cheese knives.

I also grind my own herbs and spices using a 17th century cannon ball and a large stone bowl.

My handbag is Mulberry and my shoes are kept in shape with wooden shoe trees and I have wooden coat hangars.

I moved from a beautiful Georgian market town to live next to a sink estate in a crap town to be with DP.

[sobs at my downwardly poshness]
