In addition to all things political I have a deep and abiding love for all things tabletop ever since my days as a lowly minion at a national bridal magazine. Say what gentle reader? You don't know what tabletop is? Tabletop refers to all the stuff you use on your table, plates, glasses and utensils, although typically I would say the name evokes more of the china, crystal, silver realm of things than the Chinet, Solo, Dixie side of things.So it saddened me today to read that the co-mingling of two giants in the world of tabletop, Royal Worcester and Spode, had declared bankruptcy. Go home and hug your Spode Christmas pattern, I know I will.
