The bright pink one had the Sun newspaper's logo down the side and was given away by them for some reason years ago, it started this rather small collection of - usually - Christmas novelties!
About Me
- Hugh Walter
- No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
- I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

S is for Sponge Bricks
Or; Brick Sponges? Ever had a mate throw a piece of sponge at you which you thought was a piece of concrete or a brick? Well, the sponge which looks like concrete doesn't seem to be around any more, it was used in play-pen mattresses when I was young, but I have found several bricks over the years!
