MY OLD CHINA

Hello, me old chinas*, here's another in my occasional Cockney rhyming slang series.

*china plate = mate

This is one of quite a few from this set (Johnson Bros. 'Pareek' design, 'Rococo' pattern, early 20th century) passed down to me from my grandmother. I have several large serving plates like this, and lots of half moon dishes, all much used and faded, and treasured.
