The Tuttipole in Hungerford/Berks : would you agree?

It took us a while to find the Tutti Pole, it’s hidden away under the bridge by the river in
Hungerford, and although it’s an anomaly among the gift shops and brick-a-back antique
stores, its exterior is cleverly disguised with a collection of old crockery piled high in the
window. In fact, had it not have been for an overly aggressive fleet of ducks which
chased us in its general direction, I suspect, given our navigation skills, that we may
never have found it at all.

It does tend to be tucked away somewhat, but certainly worth hunting down…seems you had a lucky encounter with the ducks…

Planning a garden tea party wedding, any suggestions?

To keep to a budget of around £6000 I want a tea party wedding in the summer. Something elegant, but a bit different too. I already know I want mismatched tea cups and crockery, and antique vases/candle holders for centrepieces. Food will be a light afternoon buffet which keeps the price down,with salad, meat fish, cheese and biscuits, a light dessert, and of course cake, maybe pretty cupcakes. Any ideas for pretty, quirky inexpensive ideas to fit in with my theme? I will have around 80 – 100 guests.

Start searching in every resale shop you can find to find the mismatched tea cups/saucers. Set a limit beforehand on what you will pay. And let these tea cups/saucers be your party favors for your guests to take with them. If not, what on earth will you ever do with 80-100 mismatched tea cups? ;-)

We actually hosted a similar wedding shower. We tried to keep the background white (table clothes) because it was less expensive to buy bulk white table clothes. Then we added bright colors in table overlays. I simply bought yardage of fabric and used iron in hem tape on the edges.

One of the hostesses had several teapots, so we used her teapots for simple centerpieces. But we wouldn’t have bought them if she hadn’t already owned them (too expensive). Look at resale shops for vases to hold flowers. They don’t have to match. Pretty napkins can add color as well. We bought light green napkins in bulk because the color would be good with so many other colors. And we’re used those napkins since then for a baby shower that had pastels.

I think your idea sounds lovely and I think that by looking through resale shops every week until you get what you need, you’ll be able to find some fun items for decor. I wish you the best.

Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge…
