Living up to ones Teapot! 13/21

I was invited to go to a talk tonight with a lovely friend who works at the University Gallery... I am tickled by the title "The Importance of living up to one's teapot".  Considering I buy a bunch of those inexpensive ceramic ones just so I can have one morning noon and night and guests too... I don't appear to have much to 'live up to'... my elegant silver one with legs.. is filthy and in long need of a good silvo polish.. but who's got time for that??... ack... I remember that was a chore when I was young to polish the silver.

Topic: ‘The Importance of living up to one’s teapot’ Lecturer: Mr LARS THARP (UK)
On Oscar Wilde, the Aesthetic Movement and the Chinamaniacs! In the last thirty years of the 19th century, the Aesthetic Period combined with the Arts and Crafts Movement, changed the course of British, European and American art. It led directly to Art Nouveau. Like it or loathe it, the period is full of wit, invention and travesty.
Lars Tharp is well known for his appearances as a ceramics expert on the British television programme, Antiques Roadshow.

Almost missed delivery for the art show... phew.. thankfully a nice lady rang and 'no.. the message on fb saying Mon and Tue delivery was wrong' ... so dashed over there looking like the wreck of the hespice hahaha. i love that saying... no idea what the hespice is but sounds convincing.

That's it my loves, I don't have another thing I can think of before having to dry my hair, fix face, get dressed, find dinner and leave the house at 6.15.


I'll tell you how the teapot talk went on tomorrows post :)
