Totally OT - Square dishes

[JoceAndChris]

I think Gervase is spot on with his remarks too. They were a passing whimsy and they finally passed to the other side about four years ago.

You need Wegewood's Renaissance gold.

The corners do get chipped.....

Just tell him that square dinner plates are naffer than a naff thing, and that anyone who isn't oriental who uses them is condemned for eternity to shop at Primark and Matalan

Oops! Once again, you see, that would actively encourage me to buy the square china, in the hope that it would lower Mrs P's wardrobe-buying sights.

I have to say, Joce, that this is very pretty and I would love to have it However, my pockets aren't filled with gold; neither do I pretend that they are, were or ever will be. As such, to even think about having it as my every day crockery would make me a complete Loony Tune :lol: Could you find me a design as lovely but far cheaper?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news Mr P, but I doubt it would work. Much more likely that SWMBO would say "I'm so glad you saved all that money on the china dear, now I can buy the beautiful * I wasn't sure we could afford"

* frock/ handbag/ shoes

Foiled again! I'll never learn, will I?

How many of you can remember this square dish? It didn't prove popular, either.
