Same here granny. My mum collected old country roses and over the years we bought her allsorts - tea service, coffee pot, sideplates dinner plates etc and now ive got it all up in display cabinets. She only got it all out at christmas and who ever was washing up was so careful because if we broke anything we had to replace it. I found that out to my cost - i broke her vase and had to replace it cost me £33 but i never dropped any of it again!

I dont drink tea never liked it will only drink coffee. Mum always drank tea never coffee and she had a old country roses mug. She said it tasted better in a mug than a teapot.
