I've various red white and champagne flutes,then there's the Waterford crystal ones and another cut crystal set we got as a wedding present ,both only used for special occasions.
Blimey Lee, I'd be frightened to get the Waterford ones out I've got some Waterford glass ornaments that mam got from peeps at work when she retired and I'm almost frightened to handle them to clean them
I've got Edinburgh Crystal ones (wedding present) - they've been up the loft for 30 years because we're too frightened to use them.
In all honesty i think you should use them and enjoy them. I don't believe in stashing things away because they're valuable. Get them out ............if you only use them on special occasions OK - but you really should use them and enjoy them IMO.
If they get broken c'est la vie..................far better than being in a dark dust attic and then your kids use/abuse them when you're gone!
GET EM OUT!
I kind of agree with Soozy on this (contrary to my previous post) If it's in a controlled situation like a dinner party, I guess it should be fine
Nice Cointreau glass that
One drinks from it with one's pinkie stuck oot
Is that not hard to keep hold of it though?

Not when you're married to an Irish version of Frank Spencer,if I go away without him he is told in no uncertain terms NOT to dare touch anything he can break or damage.I could write a book on the things he's broken and damaged over the years,and the lengths he's gone to to hide the fact.

I love kitchen utensil/cutlery/crockery threads - they're my favourite. I really feel we get to know fellow FM's that way
I'm afraid to answer now coz then you'll know I'm not very posh
I've only got one wine glass I'm the only one who drinks wine though so why would I need any more? It gets worse...... it's a big plastic one that I bought in B&M Bargains for ÂĢ1.49. It holds way too much wine Its got a nice summery pattern on it though
Classy
Oh and I drink my wine with lemonade and a straw.

I dont really drink wine tho, went through a phase of it but i dont like it until i've drank 3 glasses
