    Brie said: I think it's actually more in tune with Martin's Mantra.  Do I need it?  Well no we don't.  I think we already have 5 sets of china so more than enough for any couple.  I think if we were royalists and were doing a street party we could provide enough settings for most the street!!!
    Ha ha, good point! Five sets will probably last while and a sixth is probably a little premature. :D

    Er, we counted up my place settings.  I can feed 80 without having to worry.
    Thank goodness we're not the only ones!!

    We went to a different car boot sale this morning: it was rather crowded but quite interesting.

    I got two little Body Shop hand creams (the sort that fit in your bag) for 50p each, a couple of children's books for DGD (50p total) and a jug from a 50p box. The jug was filthy but it's Gaudy Welsh. Like the Royal Alberts, not something I'd choose if I didn't already have some with sentimental value, but it's in good condition, has cleaned up beautifully and the Internet says it's 1820 to 1860. It's going to join my mum's one and another (damaged) one from a car boot sale, to make a bit of a display.
