Holiday time!

Just remembered that I bought this 1950's china just before my holiday. I had to have them to add to my collection of wacky vintage china. Each little skiing figure appears to be handpainted.
The mark on the bottom says "Broadhurst, England. Alpine". I bought them at the Exeter Flea market which is a new event & well worth a visit. The next one is on March 14th.

Hi Liz

Lovely to see you today and I'm delighted with my purchases!

Gillie and I spent a 'working lunch' contemplating the DH fair idea and think it will work!

See you again soon.
