I have spent quite a lot of the holiday shopping on ebay. (I know... not much of a social life at the moment.) I'm an on-and-off shopper, and I'm currently enjoying an On-phase. Today I received the first lot - a beautiful vintage Portmeirion lidded pot and one small coffee cup and saucer. The pattern is called Totem (1963) and is by Susan Williams-Ellis. I've had it at the back of my head for a looong time and am very happy to finally own some. It comes in other colours too, like blue, green, grey and a burnt orange. I personally prefer the white.
I have some vague plans to go to Portmeirion, Wales. It looks like a really interesting place. Apparently it's a peninsula which should suit me fine as I live on one here in Norway.
