Laurel Trimmings














































I've taken annual leave this week and been hard at work in the garden, getting it ready for when Spring finally arrives.  Gardening is about as energetic as I get, so the winner of these plates really has put me to shame.
I found them as a set of 6 on eBay, but I don't know how many years the Poole Marathon was held, or if Poole Pottery made plates for more than these six years. As a tireless collector, I won't be resting on my laurels until I know for sure that there are no plates dating from before 1986, or after 1992 and that the 1987 Marathon was cancelled.
