A couple of weeks ago I bought off Ebay this Nuova Point ceramic espresso cup and saucer. I bought it specifically because it fitted perfectly for this frozen ball project that has recently found some interest, but I also bought it because it was advertised as ‘vintage’ (Probably looking and not real old) and I liked the little colourful Caffe Ocoa logo on the cup.

But, today when drying it, again the logo caught my eye and noticed something that I hadn’t really taken much notice of before. In fact , it hadn’t registered at all when seeing the picture of the cup on Ebay….In tiny small black writing was this… dal 1959.

Okay, so what? I hear you cry.

Well, the first three letters of my surname are DAL and I was born 1959.

Now if that isn’t spooky, I don’t know what is.

Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean people aren’t after you said the man.

That really is quite amazing. Don’t drop it!

I’m off to see if they do a “POL 1956” version.
