Stella, when I was married I used to collect wedgewood, not jsut the blue, though I had a few pieces. I got a lot of mine at boot sales, there are some real bargains there. Bought a vase for £4 that was selling in the shops at £30. |

Stella I also got a Wedgewood calender plate, beautifully decorated with British butterflies, for a fiver, and I was so pleased. I noticed when I got it home that there is a mistake in one of the months, can't remember exactly what as it has been away in a box for the last four years, but I wonder if it is worth a little more because of it. |
