About Me

My photo
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.

L is for Lambeth Walk, D is for Doing It!

Look what I photographed on Mercator Trading's table back in September . . .

Britains Civilian Figures; Britains Lambeth Walk; Britains Londoners; Britians Lead Figures; Civilain Toy Figures; Hollow Cast; Hollow Cast Toy; Hollow-Cast; Hollow-Cast Civilians; Lambeth Walk Pair; Lead Model; Lead Toy Figures; Lead Vignette; Londoners; Small Scale World; smallscaleworld.blogspot.com;
. . . it's the Lambeth Walking couple from Britains in hollow-cast lead and . . . er . . . that's it - box ticked! Oi!

♫♪♫  " Any time you're Lambeth way,
Any evening, any day,
You'll find us all
Doing the Lambeth Walk.

Every little Lambeth gal,
With her little Lambeth pal,
You'll find them all
Doing the Lambeth Walk.

Everything's free and easy,
Do as you darn well pleasy,
Why don't you make your way there
Go there, stay there.

Once you get down Lambeth way
Every evening, every day,
You'll find yourself
Doing the Lambeth Walk.oi!"  ♪♪♫♪
