I don't know... he just didn't appeal to me that much. They have lots, if you want me to pick one up for you, to send with the book.


Thanks, Tim!

mmm could be... I have so much to think about!  :lol:

i thought you didn't like fairy/magic themed sets, Bonnie ;D

 :lol: I don't but I wanted that lily pad; i have an idea or two for it, the parasol could come in handy, perhaps in a gift shop, and the other set, I bought for the flowers in it. I don't have any of that kind yet, and it was cheap. :lol: I also really like that wheelbarrow...

Oh, Great haul  :o our Tuesday Morning never had this much when ever I check last year. Now you forced me to go again to our local TM and check. I really want the chimney sweeper, the Cossack, the Spaniard, the barbarian, lady in dress and the ship captain all in large numbers. I was able to get the small arena last year so I can easily pass on that one. If the arena had seating rather than plain walls I would get them all.

you enabler  :lol:
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

The nearest Tuesday Morning is 50 miles away from here, so unlikely to be checking it out.

Good grief, you lucky lucky girl!  I wasn't aware I wanted any of those because I didn't think they were available any more.  Just shows what different countries have got, and what sells in different countries and what doesn't.

I don't know how big Tuesday Mornings is (and what a funny name for shop, I think to myself) but our local toy shops are so tiny that they have very little stock at any given time so whatever they have is always current (or long gone!)

It is a funny name! It's called Tuesday Morning because every now and then they close down to restock everything and then re-open on a Tuesday morning.

Corporate info

"Tuesday Morning is a retailer specializing in upscale closeout merchandise, with more than 800 stores across the United States. Our successful concept was founded on a unique philosophy: sell first-quality, famous designer and name-brand merchandise at extraordinarily discounted prices on an event basis. Our 10 major events usually kick off on the first Tuesday of the month. We receive new merchandise shipments daily, and customers can return often to find the shelves replenished with new items."

The "extraordinarily discounted prices" is not really true as they jack up the suggested retail price and then claim a 50% discount. Specials sell for $3.29 in the US so it should be $1.65 for 50% but T.M. sells them at $2.50 and specials were never $5.00 anywhere. I say it is lying. Why not just claim a special was $15 and claim a 85% discount  ::)
