After she passed away my uncle got most of her china and had these dishes in a box. He said they were their everyday dishes and not worth anything. I gladly took them. They are very pretty - they are china, made in England, with a picture replica of the queen's bouquet presented during her visit to Canada in 1939. That would be Queen Elizabeth, wife of King George, not Queen Elizabeth II. And they are now my everyday plates and remind me of my grandma every day.<br />Can I just change the subject for a second and remind everyone that when a school bus is stopped, with flashing lights on, it means children are getting on or getting off that bus - DO NOT PASS! Sorry, it just happened to my children this morning, 20 minutes ago, and I'm still angry that one of my neighbours didn't feel like waiting 2 more minutes for the bus to leave my driveway.Lisa D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14777395903446188971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-30836828586957064322010-12-15T07:21:32.877-08:002010-12-15T07:21:32.877-08:00Beautiful story!
