btw, Lego Darth has a really cute face (with scar) when you take his helmet off. :)

Sounds adorable, whimsical oracle.

I collect all sorts of things, one being harlequin sets, which aren’t Harlequin, Columbine, et al but sets in which item is a different colour. :)

That sounds interesting. I bet all the different colours look really nice together in a set. :)

I also collect fine pens and watches.

In fact I collect lots of things on various levels. In other words I am a compulsive hoarder :o

My mum likes teddy bears - the traditionally made proper bears like Steiff or Merrythought.

Oh that reminds me... Ladybird books.

Me and my brother bought loads with our pocket money when we were kids in the 80s.

They are highly collectable now - even charity shops know it, I saw one which has a few from the 'Adventures from History' series which they are selling at £3 - £5 each :eek:

I have most of them packed away in a box somewhere, haha :)

I don’t know what I’ve got stuff gets put in a room or a cupboard and I rediscover it. Sometimes it can be years later. :o

Me neither.

I have piles of sealed boxes in cupboards and closets, unopened for years. I know there's childhood books and toys and all kinds of stuff inside, but god knows what.

But that's the fun of it - it's going to be so exciting to re-open them at some point in the future. :D
