Poor old Triple Treat was not only having a ‘bad hair day’ but she also was in need of a good wash! She had paint on her!Sad smile

This is the first my little pony unicorn I got! I got her from a local flea market where I find alot of my ponies. I love her multi-colored hair! I have always been interested in mythical creatures such as unicorns and pegasus!So was happy to find Rarity!(Plus, she's pink isn't she?!:)

This is the first my little pony I bought. I found her at a flea market for only 50p.I think her previous owner may have drawn on the extra heart and put the glitter on her!:) Of course, this started off a pony collection! I started collecting ponies more recently.But they soon multiply!

My first Sindy doll.



Sindy



I rediscovered Sindy quite by accident.It was the Christmas holidays and I read an article about Barbie dolls and it reminded me of my Sindy dolls I had when I was little. I found this little doll on ebay and decided to buy her.(More on what has happened to my childhood dolls at a later date!) I hadn’t bought anything on ebay before. The seller was a lovely lady who I would go on to buy more dolls from in the future. My doll was dressed for Christmas when I got her. I was so happy to get her and went out and bought her some more outfits.Smile



Here she is wearing Barbie clothes.She is posing with a Playmobil Robot here.

It’s like the ‘80s all over again (for Care Bears!)

Even before I rediscovered Sindy, I rediscovered the Care Bears!.. This was the same year. I saw this little Care Bear in Toys R Us & had to get it! The fact she is pink is a bonus as I love pink!(Guess the background gives that away!My parents liked pink, well at least mum did.SmileWe had a pink bathroom,couch,chairs and everything!)I never had a Care Bear plush back in the ‘80s. So it was great to finally get one! Of course, since then the collection has ‘grown’. More on that later!Be right backCarebearweb
