Lazy Sunday

We had a decent weather here in Downunder.
I did landry a load after load, while washing machine is working hard. I did play with my camera, I have my semi-professional camera for last 2 years but hardly used since its heavy. I love my small digital camera in my bag. I played with my big camera today.

How was your Sunday?

Table Setting with Royal Albert China.

I've been collecting old, vintage, antique china over many many years. I used to have so many china cabinets but I had to get rid of them since they look so messy in the house., but I miss looking at my chinas so had to unpack one of the box.

Lovely old Royal Albert " Old country Roses"
