Mar. 02 A Taste of things to come?..Incredible Inedibles: Will the roast turkey, Christmas pud, and jam tart become one on nostalgic luxuries of the past? Will rising prices, and population reduce us all to seaweed substitute foods? A dismal prospect, but you may now console yourself with the thought that these delicacies need never leave the tea table, they have been preserved for posterity.. in ceramics! You can now have an entire pottery tea or Christmas dinner, to put on the side-board, and the realism of these objects is so good that you m, ay find it difficult to distinguish them from the real thing. Anyone wishing to test themselves against the illusive foods, can no do so at the Crafts Advisory Candra, in Waterloo Place, where a mixture of real and pottery food is on display until the 24th December. The pottery foods made by Ernest. Collyar, are part of the an exhibition of the work of many British Craftsmen of today. This Odd situation arose when the line was due to be closed 6 years ago, and the station came up for sale. Ernest and Pamola took up residence and strated work, but then the line and rail serivce was saved by a local railway association, so now trains and trains and crocks run together. This odd situation cross when the line was due to be closed 6 years ago, and the station came up for sale. Ernest and Pamela took up residence and strated work, but when the line and rail service was saved by a loval railway association, so now trains and crocks run together. Perhaps it was this extradinary combination that inspired Frnest to produce his srrealistic table treats, then again perhaps was induced by cafe snacks strangely reminiscent of pottary? Ernest himself say's: It's because I hate typical English tea'. Winchelsea Railway Station still functions as such as well as being a home and pootery works for Ernest and Pamela. This all blends in perfect harmony
