Fragile.

This cup was given to me as a child by a friend of my granny. It comes with a saucer which is made of thicker clay, but the cup itself is eggshell china, you could crush it with one hand. It still surprises me that I was entrusted with this at such a young age and I remember being given it quite clearly. A major health issue is making me feel pretty fragile too. Robert Burns words about "best laid plans" have never been more appropriate.
