Overheard Cutlery


Overheard on our Sunday morning walk:

Chairman: "Has it ever crossed you mind that I may occasionally be wrong?"

Hay: "Incessantly."

Chairman: "That's strange, because it's never crossed my mind at all."


Saw a rather nice set of classic EPNS cutlery in the charity shop in Saturday for a fiver and I was tempted. They were very, very badly tarnished, but looking at them I was convinced they would come up beautifully using the old caterer's trick of washing soda, salt, aluminium foil and boiling water - and I was right.



It's amazing what people chuck away.
