The algorithms are making it a lot harder to spread the word about these online talks. Although numbers are still reasonable, it would be a great help if folk were able to give the 30 December event a quick share 🙂

On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

A tantalising find from mid-Wales: Transfer Printed Ware willow pattern with a base stamp NEW / Brosely. It seems that this is a reference to the Broseley style of pattern rather than being made there. The style derives from Broseley, Shropshire in the 1780s based on Chinese models. 1/2
