On today's BBC #BargainHunt 'expert' Kate Bliss (in Derbyshire) suggested that T G Green started in the 1920s... I'd like to account for the missing half a century, the company was founded in 1864 !!! #tggreen #cornishware #katebliss @BBCBargainHunt

It's #FathersDay in the UK & #NationalBeerDay too.
Here's the rare 1990s Church Gresley produced tapered #Cornishware pint beer mug put to good use, with a ‘Tynt Meadow’ English Trappist Ale brewed to 7.4% by the monks of nearby Mount St Bernard Monastery in Charnwood. Cheers 🍻

Here's a new #Cornishware name ! Not BI.CARB and not CARBONATE, but CARB.SODA ! The base dates the jar to c1923 - a rare find indeed 🤗 #gresley #swadlincote #derbyshire #bicarbonate #soda

@KhalSir Sadly not... a huge difference between #Chefware and #Cornishware ! 😯 #someonewillloveit

@KhalSir @derbymuseums have a strange cataloguing system 🙄
