Lol - yes - well we worked really hard at it - so it's not surprising! we go off to local towns etc looking for charity shops. We go to bootsales every week. We ALWAYS find something

Popples:

We live on ebay! LOL! Ebay is a bit expensive though we scout the charity shops every other day and bootsales every week. Even the tiniest things become part of our collection - i have several old kinder toys from the late 80s!

What a cool thread! Brought back a lot of memories.

Gutted though - I was absolutely adamant that Berk was red!

Loved the popples, had a couple of those.

Is it me or did you have a pic of a "finders keepers" model? (If that's what they're called?)
