I’ve never had it happen before, that someone should enquire about china from the auction, several weeks later. But two people did, in the last couple of weeks. The upshot was that I’ve sold four lots – the vendors are pleased, of course, and I didn’t charge anything (can’t be changing my accounts a month on, not for potential commission of a few pounds), but it’s nice that some more china has found good homes.

Today, I was supposed to make chilli relish and bread. I’ve bought the chillies, but I actually made chicken casserole and celery soup. I’ll do the others on Monday or so.

In other news, I’ve started Christmas shopping. Not got far, but there we go.
