You have such a knack for finding loveliness. So I guess no bartering was involved this time, given the price ☺. Oh, and why don't you introduce this little lady to lamingtons this weekend - just stock up on your coconut and you're good to go.<br /><br />Oh, and like Laura, I wondered about the comment about returning home. Is that imminent or something a few years down the track? I'm intrigued now.

I ...I always think the same when I get old china... I wonder who lovingly took care of these... packing them away after meals gently so they didn't get broken... wondering who they were treasured by? As always your pictures are beautiful! When do you return back to Oz? Do you have much time left in Blighty? I love that you fell in love with my beautiful home... as you know, I share the same appreciation for yours! Perhaps you'll pop over to the States on day? Anyhoo, have a great weekend! Here's hoping for sun! LxLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17986230601258342720noreply@blogger.com
