Well, I just hope Tony does not tell me he won't let me put one of
"his" handles on MY first teapot. I think it is great, today. No
telling what I might think of it in a few more years. My teacher
suggested (really he _said_) that the handle on the lid is not
right...

Gay:
Tell your instructor to go pound sand.
Nothing wrong with that lid handle, from what I can see.
Congratulations!
