Happy St George's Day

 Henry has blogged over on his blog his battle with the dragons on St George's Day!

Click on the photo to see story.





Happy St Georges Day!

Henry is working on a St Georges Day post for later today.... in the meantime he thought it would be fun to revisit a post from 2012!  

Henry threw himself into the whole St George's Day celebration today...donning himself in a pair of red and white shorts...although he grumbled about not having a plain red pair...and arming himself with a sword, posters and my ornamental dragon teapot.




What are you doing Henry?


I'm fighting the dragon Mum

I'm not sure a little dragon looks that convincing Henry!



But I look good with my sword don't I?



Yes indeed you do Henry, although I think you could probably do with some armour to go with that!

I made a shield Mum, but forgot to use it!

Oh well at least you will be prepared if you ever come across a big dragon.



Yikes! Henry exclaims as Mum wanders off and a HUGE dragon breathing fire swoops down...

I wish I hadn't forgot to wear my shield now, and I WISH Mum would hurry and make my suit of armour!


Fortunately Henry survives his encounter with the dragon to fight and play another day!

Happy St George's Day everyone!


Of course we can't forget with the Sasha Festival coming up that today is also the anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare who died 23rd April 1616

Gregor Shelves

Sunday I spent some time sorting the boy's shelves.


From left to right:  Bobby, Hamish, the twins, James and Connor, Allan, Francis and Albert


In front of them are Caleb, Gwilym, Edward, ? and Thomas


who have been joined by Rory, Donny, Ollie and some furry friends.

Next up we have the costume shelf


Scout, Peter, Simon, Christopher William, Daniel, Pierre and Nigel


It is really hard to take photos in this space as it is quite narrow.  I am hoping by the end of the year, that my books will have a new home so that I will have more space for the dolls and they won't have to be standing in front of each other.


As you see it is quite a narrow space.

Sasha Shelf Sorting

Well I am not doing very well with posting on this blog!  Or indeed doing much with my Sasha family at all, but I did start 'faffing' with their shelves the other day.  Unfortunately the light isn't the best where I keep them so I had to use the flash which isn't ideal.  



The 'Rose Hip Chicks' on the left (Ziva, Cora, Sasha and Maddison.  Alice dressed up as the farm girl, Susan in the school uniform and then Charlotte and Erica Michelle dressed up in their Mini Me and Mini My Sister dresses. (All outfits made by me)


In front we have Stevie, Mary-Ellen, Molly, Summer and Sophia, all wearing clothes made by me apart from the outfit worn by Stevie.


The baby and toddler shelf.  

Unfortunately two of the babies in the back left can't be seen very well.  They are Baby Grace and Baby Amelia.  Bonnie my toddler is standing up.  On the rocking horse is Baby Barney Bam Bam, who surprisingly has clothes on which is not very usual.  In the front are Blonde Baby  Boy, Natalie and Baby Alfie.  All wearing clothes I have made them.

Next up will be the boys shelves.

Advent & Christmas 2025

I was seriously ill last year, and have been recovering all year, but fortunately although still not completely well, I am home this year so...
