Before getting to the main meat of what will be a substantial post, a coda to my last post, at the end of which I stated boldly that I reckoned England would win their ODI series against the West Indies. I was proved right, in spite  of a fine innings by Denesh Ramdin, which reduced the margin to 25 runs (still one for every two overs if you think about it – quite comfortable in my book).

There was no post yesterday because I attended a public meeting in Norwich, which I will talk about in detail in tomorrow’s post. Yesterday and early today I did some finishing off work on the March imaging. I have also imaged some lots of for the April sale, and done some work on the April Time Bid sale.

Obviously I have a lot of images for this post, and will limit myself to commenting about one in particular, which is lot 393 in the March sale, and consist of two large metal dishes. These were two big to be photographed together, so I took two pictures and used my editing skills to splice them together as seamlessly as possible.

I hope you like these pictures:

This cabinet was one of three similar lots, and I had not previously seen anything of this sort.
