  4. Oh I like that red teacup - it's been a long time since I found anything really good in a charity shop - I think there are too many others hunting for treasures these days.

    1. i find the best way to get the treasures is to go the same op shops regularly..i can then whip around the shop in a few minutes and i can tell really quickly if there is something new and that i want..
