I think the plate and crockery must come from Sir William's grandfather, the first baronet.

It comes out for the Christmas turkey and Eid's famous Pork Satay evenings during ram-a-dam.

We do have to watch out 'though. The plastico's have been known to hock the soup turines for ready money and to drink the metal polish.

I understand you can request it be laid for your birthday feast (should you feel so inclined to invite us to one - recommended or you will find the door to your sleeping cabin removed, frequently). A small contribution to GD's orphan fund (they are often run short).
