Saved from the Fiery Furnace

I have just had a lovely afternoon with my friend Meg, drinking tea, eating biscuits and putting the worlds to right! As it was a lovely sunny afternoon took a stroll round the garden pinching and eating her Raspberries straight from the canes. Picking her Dandelions for my other friend Jane for her tortoises. On the way out to the garden I saw the wood pile of different types of wood for the wood burner, well...............how could this be chopped up for firewood so I asked if I could have it for Caitlin. Think Abigail (aged 16years) was only too pleased to let me have it rather than seeing her dad chop it up. Now I had to get it in our house without Alex seeing it because I know what would happen, he would give me one of them looks where the eyes rolled upwards, they didn't he was asleep in the chair when I got home, he claimed he had only just nodded off!!!!! It was OK he agreed with me there was nothing wrong with it. Caitlin won't get it yet I will probably save it for a couple of years yet so that will give me chance to make bedding for it. I will certainly enjoy myself thats for sure!

  3. Oh, that reminds me of the one I had as a child.... it was blue, a cot rather than bunk beds and had a drop down side, I wonder what happened to it!

  7. I love dolls' beds and cots! Can't get enough of them. I collect dolls, so it sometimes looks like a dormitory in my spare room! SueXXX
