We got a house of fraser oval pot for a wedding present, it's purple and it's pretty much the same

but purple! Which I think they've stopped doing

Ohhhhh that's nice!:)

I have one that's very similar (but dark blue) but unfortunately it's starting to lose it's non-stick and it chipping around the edges - I got it as a pressie when I got my 1st flat so it's errrrr over 15 years old so I can't complain!:)

I still use it and just make sure it's well oiled but I do have to be careful what I put in it ... and I'd love a new one.

Maybe once the bus fund's got to where it needs to be, that can be my next savings challenge - it's nice having smaller ones that you can achieve relatively quickly (as well as the longer term ones obviously) and get a wee treat now & then!:)

Sounds like a great plan I like having smaller savings targets, as well as the bigger ones

So, I've written most of my christmas cards

Other things I need to do today:
- put screen wash in car
- check car tyre pressures
- wrap a present for posting

Not much to do today

Other things I need to do today:
- put screen wash in car
- check car tyre pressures

Ohhhhh they're both on my list on the "small things" thread for today and I really must do them as long(ish) trip to the hospital tomorrow ...... must've used at least 1/2 my screen wash going over to Mr T this morning as the roads are horrid - think tractors, wet potato fields and rain

Been putting it off as it's cold out but off to do that right now or I'll end up doing it in the dark!:D

mmmm might just put the kettle on before I go out and have a cuppa - and mince pie of course - when I've finished;););) .... now, there's an incentive to do it!

*sigh* come on Rising ... get up!

Being nosey!

Do you always make your tea in a teapot?

Do you find it tastes different?

Honestly, no I don't I much prefer it made in a teapot, but as there's only me that drinks it normally, I just make it with a teabag in the mug. However, I'd really like a nice teapot to have when people come round
