Stoke-on-Trent Spree



Last Thursday (24 Jan 08) we went to Stoke-on-Trent. Actually this is unplanned trip. Bangun jer pagi papa decide to go. Apa lagi mama as usual cepat jer agree sbb boleh jalan2. Iqbal looks so happy eventho he have not enough sleep last night. We breakfast at Subway coz papa want to use the coupon GBP1.99 per set. Then, straight to Stoke-on-Trent. The journey took about one hour and we arrived at Portmeirion Potteries, Longton at 11.00am. Apa lagi start shopping. We bought one set (not complete set actually) of Botanic Roses. Design Warm Wishes. Nice peach/pink roses. Here we spent almost GBP130. Ok la bila lagi nak datangkan. Buah tangan from UK. This is after 50% sale you know.

Then we went to Wedgwood Factory Shop. To me, I am not interested with the tableware here. Dalam tak menarik pun beli gak tea cup (GBP2)+ saucer(GBP0.56)each. Set of 4 and 3 hexagonal plates for 1pound each. Ok la.

Sam still want his Royal Doulton, as a good wife I have to follow him. ahaks. (Hooray dapat Royal Doulton plak lepas nih). So, we went to Doulton & Company Outlet Superstore. The sale is up to 80% discount. Sebab kan hati mmg dah lama nak Royal Albert, so we bought one dinner set of Royal Albert for GBP80. Design old country roses. Yang best lagi we bought a few tea cup, saucer & plates for GBP0.20 each.

After we completed our mission we went back at 4.30pm. Tapi punya la teruk jammed dia. Almost 4 hours on the motoway baru sampai rumah. Tension betul. Nasib la shopping gak pinggan mangkuk terubat semua tuh. Thank you papa. I love you so much.
