Many thanks to everyone who contributed, it was an eclectic mix of stuff in various scales and materials. If you'd like to 'show & tell' something but don't fancy a whole Blog, by all means take a few shots, add a bit of blurb and it can go up here, we're not fussy at Smallscaleworld!
Meantime I have been buying mass-produced polymer crud to keep the blog afloat and here's some . . .
. . . I saw these in WHSmith's the other day, and being a tight-wad was baulking at the
potential loss of a whole two quid, but needed to get a magazine for
someone-else, along with a paper so thought "What the hell, push the boat out..." and helped myself to a
bag of crisps, a plain chocolate Bounty and s'quad of cacti . . . living-up
here, I am; wallowing in decadent consumerism!
So, what do we get for a couple of nicker?
50p's-worth of cactus, times-four, that's what, an ideal size for a larger-scale
dolls-house, but I had already decided I didn't want the pots, and thought it a
bit naff that all the flowers were the same colour!
Well, snip-snip, glue-glue, colour-colour
and five minutes later - bish-bosh, job-done!
You will need . . . some - preferably green
- tidily-winks! And the pots go in the spares box, to make nice LGP-tyres on a
moon-buggy at some point!
That's it - four more cactii for the cactus
sub-/side-collection! I'm still not happy with the Gymno-whatever . . . they
are grafted hybrids for kid's windowsills (I had a red one when I was a kid),
not something you find in the Apache badlands or blocking fields-of-fire at the
Alamo; so I think its flower may yet end-up in the 'Unknown Sportsmen' box as a
beach-ball - with a hole in it!
