Re: Did you ever have one of these?

Back in the 60s my dear old Mum in law knitted a multicoloured cover for her teapot..remember teapots? It was a three pointed shape. Every time we visited I would say " I see the Pope's been visiting again"

Re: Did you ever have one of these?

In the 60s my parents, like every other house in the UK, had a copy of one of Trechikoff's prints




Remember Teapots? What? Who doesn't have a teapot? I use several, it is only the Philistines who don't like tea that use teabags surely?

We had the very posh version which spun when the top was depressed, hiding the fag end inside.

So did we. I still have the table top versions. I buy them in the Pound shop for £1 each.
