Shelly's Other Presents to the 'Brood'

A little 'Me to you' bear set and an alarm clock along with the recycling bin. Many thanks
Auntie Shelly for these most useful and super gifts.



A little 1970 Baby Woolly decides to claim the delightful little grey 'Me to You' bear as he says that he has been wanting one of his own for a very long time.



You're so soft and furry.........



...and totally cuddly. Oh, we are going to have such fun together.



Just what we have been wanting as our mummy has been sleeping in rather late on account of disturbed nights and sometimes needs to be woken up at a certain time if she has an early appointment to go to.



We'll put it on our bedside chest. Now we need to find out how to start and set it to the right time.



Shall we set the alarm for 7.30am? The house should be nice and warm by then.



A million thanks Sarah for your continuing help here.

New Year lad arrives....

....and gets to grips with the FIRST of Shelly's Christmas presents, their very own re-cycling bin.
A minty 1969 in tube PJ boy arrives to celebrate the start of 2012 but he soon sheds his Pyjama outfit when he sees all the other lads in their Dollydoodle's wear.



Luckily I had ordered some jeans, a hoodie and gilet plus a saggy beanie from Judith and a pair of Ruthsdoll's lace ups ready for his arrival.
A close up of his wide face and beautiful eye paint.



He soon sets to work on reading the recycling instructions as to what is allowed to be put into this most useful re-cycling bin that Shelly so thoughfully gave 'The Brood' since she is aware of how good their mother is on this task.
Every little helps.



Next the 2012 collection dates have to be looked up as the bins are only collected fortnightly in East Cheshire.



Right! We are now well underway with the sorting and collecting. Yes, paper and cardboard items, plastic bottles and containers and bubble wrap can all go in.



Many thanks Shelly for this unusual and most useful gift. We all like to do our bit to save the environment and our landfills from being overfilled.




Thanks Sarah. So sorry that I'm having to ask you again to add my photos. Now that the festival donations and hostess gifts are ordered and almost sorted I'll have another attempt at downloading them myself.
