Here are a few items I gathered together for the Fun Foto challenge. For anyone who is interested most of the pots, pans and china were made in England by various companies. I’m not sure about the silverware. It’s great fun to take pictures of them.

I came to Australia with my mother and sister Vanda in 1966 from the UK aboard the Sitmar liner Castel Felice. We settled in South Australia I lived in the western suburbs of Adelaide for most of my life. I became very interested in retro items in my twenties. It was always a dream of mine to have an old house and fill it with retro items. I have done it twice now. My main interest is collecting old things. They do not have to be valuable, only interesting. There is something reassuring about old retro items. I have all sorts of things including doll related items. My other interests are my beautiful pets, art and going for drives to who knows where. I also enjoy board games or doing a scenic jig saw puzzle on a wintry afternoon by the fire. My goal is to travel a bit more as there are some places I would love to see

  1. I think we have a saucer with that rose design at the shop. Will have to see if it is the same brand. Mum’s frying pan still looks good. She loved that frying pan, thought it was the best she had ever had.
