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.

News, Views Etc . . . Additional Image and Press Relese

I've added the Kleeware catalogue image to the Ideal/Kleeware 'Big Bertha' post from a while back, it does have the tilt visible, which rounds off that post nicely!

*******************************************

News from Barney Brown at Herald Toys & Models, who has added new stock, given the speed the swoppets cleared-out the other day, you need to get a shift-on!

". . . this week we have for sale the Glasgow collection of Wild West figures, including a number of Charbens and Crescent 'Movables' (with our sister eBay Shop having for auction a substantial quantity of Timpo Swoppet-type figures and wagons from the same collection). We also have many more discounted items within our SALE items with many further reductions, so Get Them While They're HOT!"
