Default got a really weird one

A number of years ago now I bought my boss a ceramic round tuit which we kept over the bar on a nail. Everything was fine until the nail dropped out and it shattered. Wasn't at the time able to find a replacement and I forgot all about it as the last 20 years have passed.

Until one day I was talking to my boss's hubby who told me he was looking for one and I was the first person he'd talked to that knew what it was. So I said if I see one I'll get it for him. Three days later I'm in Toronto and looking around all the ....um well actually all the stores that look probable and there's nothing but a small plastic coin sized thingy available at The Real Canadian. I thought it might be possible to get something else.

Doh, hoooooow stoopid could I be? I can't find anything online let alone in Canada. I can't find anything suitable in a store although I have a local gift shop owner working on it for me I'm not holding out much hope.


Can anyone help me and tell me where I can get a Round tuit....preferably ceramic plate sized but at this point........ well ya know...anything

If all else fails, there are some of them on eBay.

I'm a real procrastinator but eventually I plan on getting a round tuit.

Thanks, yes, I found them too but they weren't what I was looking for at all hence the question...a lot of the others are linked back to the tuit history site. I hadn't thought of looking at Ebay. I don't normally like Ebay but hey, if needs must
