Topic: A silly question about plastic stoppers

I have a fish, green but sadly not uranium, so Christine didn't want it.
Found it for a couple of quid in a charity shop, and stuck it in a bottle for lack of anywhere better to put it.

Who are these funny people that separate bowls from fish? Don't they realise us glass types then have to spend ages trying to find the right bowl for the right fish? Still it gives me something to do I suppose!!!!     Cheryl

I imagine bits of sets get broken, so you end up with fishes without dishes and dishes without fishes, lurking in charity shops.

Also, sets of things can become seperated when folk are making donations to charity shops, perhaps, because of their shape or size, they end up packed in different bags or boxes, and the sorter doesn't know they belong together.

I found a Tapio Wirkkala decanter in a charity shop one week, the matching glasses didn't turn up for another couple of weeks - in the same shop. Got the lot for £1.80 - decanter 80p, the 10 shot glasses @10p each.

Now you've let the cat out of the bag Michelle - Christine might well be after your/John's fish!
