If you decide to go that route, and don't have space in your garden (well, that's a silly thought), I'd volunteer to "home" it in mine. :-):: dorishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01201080442650554725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7017925699690446520.post-83026728544218733352014-01-16T02:05:56.325-08:002014-01-16T02:05:56.325-08:00Thanks, Bill, for this suggestion.

Some insist it can be made good as new with glue.

A part of us gets all involved when something with memories for us, which we've long cherished, breaks, goes kaput, etc.<br /><br />Something Steve and I now do with broken pottery: we put it in our garden at various points, arranged in decorative ways, so that it has a new life pointing up leaves, flowers, etc. <br /><br />P.S. I think we once had that same platter, or a version of it. And am now wondering what became of it. I can remember the little Italian shop in Toronto near where we lived, at which we bought it in the late 1970s.William D. Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07246026074693891965noreply@blogger.com
