   I loved afternoon tea at the Tea Room so much that I decided I wanted a complete set of Old Country Roses Royal Albert China. Then I found out how much it costs so I bought I setting just for myself!A few months later my (ex)husbands mother passed away and he was telling me how she had this special tea set that I would really like, and he comes over with the entire dinner set for 12 of Royal Albert Old Country Roses. I almost fell over.He will give it to our daughter one day, but in the mean time I can look at it and he even lets me use it occasionally!A good scone is by far my favourite part of afternoon tea, closely followed by lemon tart and bubbly!!

   I wish I knew, we have at least 12 of everything, some more!
   I hate the damn stuff!

   Name of the Hank Jr song is "eleven roses" and was done in 1972 when Hank Jr was still doing music in his dad's sound.

   Hank Williams Jr made a early go at it trying to sound like his dad and basically recorded from 1964- the mid 70s due to this…

   So some songs are mistakenly sometimes thought to be his dad when in actually it's Hank Jr.s early songs

   Love the table Marie! I sometimes take a photo of mine at Christmas but this year I forgot. Is that Old Country Roses china I see? I have that too, my Mum bought mine for me so it’s extra special to me. Hope you’re well. ~~~ Pat xx

   I sang a 'Song To Woody' telling him 'A Hard Rains Gonna Fall'. He answered 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue', because I can see 'The Gates Of Eden' and I'm 'Tryin To Get To Heaven'. I though I was his 'Girl Of The North Country' but I'm just a 'Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands'.

   Makes sense. They buy our crap, we buy theirs.
