Unfortunately I cannot recall being given the silver teapot you mention but it may have been my sister Muriel who received it for her wedding. I will make enquires when I next speak to her. Whilst writing, may I ask a favour of you please? My father loved Mrs Rawdings sponge cake and for may years I had the recipe but cannot find it at present. I would love a copy of it again if you still have the recipe in your possession. I know it began with the words take six eggs and it was a sponge cake which kept very well for some time if placed in a tin. It was a generous thought of your uncle and aunt to bequeath you the silver water jug and I hope it will give you pleasure for many years. Thank you again for writing to me.', sold with the accompanying silver plated hot water jug, 22cm high.
