Title: Greetings from the Field of Rushes
Post by: selket on September 03, 2010, 21:21:28: Hello,

my name is Anne. I´m living in Germany near Frankfurt.
I started collecting Playmobil again ten years ago after a long dry spell, simply be keeping it for myself instead of giving it to my kids. ::) They had to come with me to every flea market in town and they had to look sad to get a good price. By now I´m near to compulsive hoarding (as my husband would say....). The basement is nearly completely filled with boxes and loose things... ;) I collect knights, dollhouse, specials, x-mas and egyptians and hoard everything else.

Greetings

Selket

I am not allowed to hoard anymore at the moment :( because we have so much unsorted stuff my wife wants to inventorise, before hoarding more.

So keep on hoarding while you can!!!
