Just over a year ago we decided to add a vintage crockery hire to our catering business. We had fun collecting the crockery from antique shops and fairs and charity shops and I keep a book of what we have, what we spent and what we have made from hiring it.
We now have enough crockery to cater for up to a hundred and forty and in a year it has paid for itself so from now on we are in profit. It is never going to make a huge amount but anything it does make is a bonus and we enjoy hiring it out.
Yesterday we did a small hire of the vintage crockery and were asked if we had any festive crockery. I said that we had one trio which my eldest son Steve and his wife gave me as one of my Christmas gifts last year. I said we would include it in the hire and was quite pleased to give it an outing.
Today after I had collected back the crockery and washed it up I decided that the festive trio should be included in my Christmas decorations.

I felt quite pleased that we can enjoy this gift over the Christmas period and that it has had an outing too.
