Two dolls.


 Elizabeth is kinda a rescue.....in the way that she arrived through the post and then I rescued her from the sorting office. Marilyn WAS a Disney princess......in fact she came from a bundle of poor lambkin dollies all sellotaped together for just one pound......poor lass.....Not up to much really.....but hey! a bit of a hair cut....a dress and a beauty spot......

 I always wanted a marylin doll and a James Dean.......These are rescues.....this as near as I can get......

Valentines day is on the way...so love is in the air...dolls ......these are dolls....



A book and a doll. Did God Create Burton!?


A simple book and a doll. 
Well actually...the book is not at all simple. It is HUGE!   and really!? do you think God created Burton!? 
 The debate would never have been an issue......except I was sent The book from California.....it is by Tom Rubython with a foreward by Roger Moore and a prologue by Robert Hardy,......well hey no arguements with that then......so ....this great tome arrived at my door via a neighbour.
 Monza the dog, Thought it hilaroius , so much so that when I carefully closed the door....so that he could not get out and jump at the neighbour......he locked me out . yes again!. He managed to put on the dead lock with his big hairy paws, whilst jumping excitedly and barking.
So there I was holding a large packet from California containing Richard Burton! freezing to death with my neighbour giggling up a storm....he loves Monza the dog fortunately. Monza just wanted to come out and lick him......so Breaking and entering my own house ensued.

This is not the first time this has happened, the last time Lee had to borrow a window cleaners ladder and climb in through the bathroom window....all the time calling out to Monza the dog, not to rip his leg off as it appeared. of course there was the time he locked us out of the van too, in a super market car park.There we were on cctv breaking into our own van!!! I know we were on cctv , as I spotted all the cameras change direction to point at us! gave security a really laugh I expect.
This time it was relatively easy, as I had not bolted the doors from the inside just closed them, so only a little force was needed on the occasion. Monza did continue to bounce up and down during the operation and hurl himself at the door....did not help much really!

Once back into my own house with my treasure, I hastily unwrapped said treasure, and took some photos.....then I got all arty with my Elizabeth Taylor doll.....as you see.
The book ! ah yes. well I have started .......I am a few chapters in, and can safely comment that...really I do not think God created Burton. In fact between you and I ...it may have been the devil. 
the book is a delight .....very naughty man. This is why I always loved him.

rescue dolls....junk......and a singing womble.














I want a Marilyn doll......So I made one. and rescue Bratz Boyz......

 I started the day with blue toes and a quick job search. West Yorkshire is very cold, and it snowed again in the night. The only person who likes the cold is Monza the dog and his very long fluffy fur coat.

The job search was because I need a job to go with my volunteer unpaid job. I need to be paid! I found one job to apply for. It has my name on it. I want this job. Now how to answer the question? why do I want to work for them? Closing date is 13th of this month, so by then I will have come up with some inspirational ideas!
So there I was with blue toes. Hot food as breakfast fixed this along with a brisk walk into Yeadon. Lee walked Monza the dog...as he has no fear of ice and snow. His big hot bear paws melt it on the way out....
These two little Bratz Boyz...I found them in Oxfam.........great excitement! my Bratz collection will be extatic! The disney doll in the centre vecame MARYLIN!

as you see she worked out quite well.






Here she is with Elizabeth and a Bratz Boy.....


















An old one. Let's go Barbie!

aThe breakers yard,,,,,Lets go Barbie!........ A girly place to go!? ......well yes on this day     It turned out very well.  ...
