I said ok, who is this really? And the voice said, definitely smoking but you should go shopping because there is no food here. And I said, you don't need food if there's coffee and cigarettes.
Oh my god, that is an amazing teacup. I am surprised they still sell it. It's like the Marilyn Monroe of teacups, all tiny waist and spilling out the top.
nah... i meant really just the one teacup and saucer -- set enough for me. there is an antique shop on glebe point road that used to have the green (pistachio) and purple (lilac) ones in the window. i think they are still there. i feel nervous drinking out of the cup -- it is so very delicate.
Oooh. I might like to go and see the other tea cups and say hello to them. Maybe I will even buy them, depending on the price, I am not a lady with a lot of spare money for tea cups.
If anyone out there would like to become my weird stalker you may commence by buying me nice tea cups.

Some people say it is Bad Manners but I like to dip my cigarettes in my coffee and suck on them ... do you?
I shall just have to go on my own. I might go on the bus. Sometimes I like to catch the bus. I like buses on a Saturday when time is elastic and purpose is loose. I like the idea of catching a bus to Glebe, buying one beautiful tea cup then sitting in a cafe to read. I shall wear a dress and a cardigan. I will brush my hair as though is 1933. This will be my time travel. I will be I for Isobel.
I have a teacup you might like. I bought it with the intention to set up a crazy online store but that idea died in 3 hours. So now I have a teacup and saucer (white with gold trim) featuring a handpainted profile portrait of a man playing lawnbowls. I will try to get you a photo.
