As the jubilee is coming to a end i thought id throw in my 2 pence worth, and i thought some of you may appriciate this! as i certainly do! nice bit of rare history i would imagine.

My wife just pointed out that perhaps we were the only (non ardent royalist / collector) household still to be using a silver jubilee (1977) tea towel! Nonsense, I said, supping from my corronation (1953) pint glass!

Both came from my Grandparents house, and I don't think either HAD been used.....

How will this weekends tourist tat fare, I wonder?????

I just had a cup of earl grey out of my farourite mug (1977 silver jubilee mug) haha!

The white one with blue printing? I think All the kids in school & Nursery were given one (I was too young, but mum was a teacher.....)

I dropped mine a year or so back!

Yes it's White, but it's full colour!

ooh, fancy!

She then replied, why dont you take the other trophys out to the garage aswell ?
well the trophys are still on the shelf (in my flat) and she is not
