Not cheap here either but this doesn't seem to stop Margaret from saying things like "ooh, I haven't got one of those in that colour"... grrr.
We found a wonderful kitchenware shop in Holland where Margaret bought a pan, the salesman then insisted on giving us a half hour lecture on care and use of LeCreuset pans. I was trying to hurry him along as we had to get the boat through the lift bridge when it opened but he wasn't to be rushed so we ended up having to run all the way back to the boat. Otherwise we would have been stuck there for another day because we would have missed the tide.
