I bought some new cutlery today

(http://www.tesco.com/direct/alessi-cutlery/ in case you wanted to see it.) I don't normally do these collecting coupon things, because I tend to think they're just rubbish stuff, but these looked so lovely on the stand I saved my coupons. Today I bought a set of 4 of each and oh my they are nice. They feel grand and have a lovely heft to them. And googling to find a picture of them I found the Alessi website selling them at ridiculous prices. £90 for 6 knives ridiculous.

And I realise that getting rapturous over cutlery is ludicrous but oh you should feel them!

In other news there are still Our Boys tickets available and I want to go again and am trying to talk myself out of it, but half of me is also trying to talk myself into it. I guess either way I'll win...

I have to go back to work tomorrow after a week off, and have been in 'feeling sick every time I think about it' mode all day. A lottery win would be so nice.

Now, shall I watch The Women in Black, Dalziel and Pascoe or Lewis.

yes! Don't spend money on fancy napkins, start with decent cutlery.

I once came home from a drunken quiz night out with 4 sets of knives and forks in my handbag. Totally NOT stolen. I vaguely remembered needing to clear the table to do quiz things and there being nowhere but the floor for the cutlery. My handbag was the logical place I guess.

Of course, on another occasion I came home with two plungers for which there is no explanation.
