Christmas plates

We bought these Horsea Pottery plates for my parents over the years.  They were ranged up the staircase - not just at Christmas, but all through the year, until they downsized.  After they moved to a smaller house, I do not recall them being displayed.  When dad had a clear out, they came my way, along with quite a lot of other plates, because I had started collecting plates myself.

I have been cracking the whip over Walter, and he has put them up in time for this Christmas.  They look better made large

In the background through the left hand window, you can also see the icicle lights that he has put up today - and I didn't even need to bribe him!
