Hi Jrodpad, I'm definately hoping tomorrow is better

There's a picture of the restrepia in the Pleurothallis Alliance forum and a picture of the coelogyne cristata var alba in the Coelogyne Alliance (as I'm looking for advice on how to support a growth which has gone way over the limits of the pot). The Coel. ochracea/ nitida has a double spike forming and is a lot bigger than the other plant I have already, which is also in spike. When they all open, I'll be on cloud 9 as the scent is out of this world! (so, pics will come when they get a bit bigger for my poor little camera!)
The teapot which broke is a glass teapot by a company called Teaposy, who specialise in what they call blooming teas. I love it because it's clear and (as I use loose leaf tea) I can check the strength as I brew and watch all the leaves unfold. I tried making tea with another teapot and got it totally wrong because it had a different water capacity - the trouble is that I'm too set in my ways!
