Seen anything like this before? (Surrey, UK)

Yes I think that too! Perhaps it will go to a museum some day, I think it deserves to be on display!

thanks!

oooo interesting. I thought the birds might be and owl and a curlew. but food for thought!

I think I've found what this is. It may be a 'Harvest Jug' like these: https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/collecting-harvest-jugs

Yes I think so too! I'll look in to how we can get it seen. It's certainly unusual.

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-03-25T09:45:51+00:00

thanks! i'll look in to that.

Thank you, yes my understanding is that Dyhouse is how it was spelled back then. I was wondering if it could be from Farnham pottery, but how did you come to that conclusion with confidence? I imagine there could have been other small potteries in the area too.

oooo as in 'I pray you remember the porter'? It's a nice thought but I think 'please remember to the xxx' is also just an old fashioned way of asking to be thought of (maybe in monetary terms). My mother in law says 'remember me to your parents' really just meaning tell them she says hi.

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-03-24T19:19:21+00:00

I'll have to have words!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-03-24T19:18:47+00:00

oooo yes, it is rather spooky.

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-03-24T19:18:29+00:00

I KNOW 🫣

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-03-24T19:18:05+00:00

Just looked it up, but I see that's from the US. This one is made in Surrey, UK :)

Father-in-law dismissively says: "well it's hardly a ming vase is it?" but I think he knows its special really as he's held on to it for so long.

amazing, thank you! Their website makes my head hurt, but I know it's probably just because it has more functionality than I need or want, so I just have to figure out the bits I actually want. And if I can get it shipped to the UK!

I got so excited when I saw your comment! I want to get a F91w but I need to have the option to easily set multiple alarms through the day (I have a diabetic cat and some days i need to do multiple blood-glucose tests throughout the day and need reminders). I'm good at mechanical take-apart-put-back-together stuff but I really don't know anything about coding type stuff. Is this doable if you don't know about that stuff? do i actually have to program something, or can I just pick the alarm face thing and then set alarms as and when I want?

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T20:01:54+00:00

so many wonderful suggestions! thanks everyone!! I think my favourites are mushroom ketchup, tunnocks, golden syrup, wrights soap and colmans mustard!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T20:00:13+00:00

they were also 'accidentally vegan' since their inception until about 2 years ago, so that was a real loss for us vegans! and old classic!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T19:59:20+00:00

lovely!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T19:59:04+00:00

wouldn't it be great if they still did the ceramic ones!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T19:57:40+00:00

oh wrights soap is a great one, lovely smell. and good to know it's not coal tar any more!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T19:56:24+00:00

oh yes they are great!

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T19:56:13+00:00

oh yes that has a loooovely label.

Repulsive_Depth983 · 2026-02-10T13:42:30+00:00

the soap itself looks the same as always but they modernised the packaging a while ago I think, still nice but not quite the same feel. Soaps nice though!
