A SILLY DOLLY

I bought this knitted doll online to put in the toybox for Astrid to play with when she visits.  I didn't take notice of the size and was surprised when she arrived as she's around 2 feet tall.  She's a sporty doll as shes wearing roller skates, and in one hand she's holding a skipping rope and in the other she has a hobby horse.  On her hat she has a yo - yo.  I thought she would make a good Silly Saturday blip. Astrid doesn't like her so poor Dolly doesn't get played with.  I think I will take her to the charity shop where hopefully someone will give her a good home with a child who will love her. Thanks to KangaZu for hosting Silly Saturday in memory of Admirer.

Ive added a silly Extra.  A photo my brother sent me.  A very funny spelling mistake.

I phoned the Blaydon Sorting Office this morning using the number on their website..... but it turned out it wasn't the sorting office number... it was a Royal Mail number and I was put through to the same line I had phoned twice before.  So I spoke to another person and had to go through the saga yet again.  More apologies and reassurances that parcel would be delivered.  ........ supposedly on Tuesday.  I wouldn't bank on it.

I went back to bed after the phone call as I didn't feel too good.  Had a headache and my leg was sore.  Felt a bit better when I got up again.

Couldn't be bothered to do much so I watched TV and did a bit of online shopping.  I did pop into the back garden to feed the birds and water the plant pots.  They seem to need water every day at the moment.
