November 26 GEORGE CARNELLSORRY IF YOU WENT TO GEORGE CARNELL, I DID!!! FORGOT THE DAY HAD BEEN CHANGED TO SATURDAY, I KNEW AND WAS GOING TO CHANGE IT AFTER THE BURY FAIR, WHEN I GOT HOME I GOT A MESSAGE THAT MY DAUGHTER HAD BEEN TAKEN INTO HOSPITAL AND FORGOT TO DO IT! I SHOULD CHECK MY OWN WEBSITE, THE DOLLSTOYSBEARSINBRITAIN ONE, AS I'M SURE I'D DONE IT ON THERE.
SORRY IF YOU DID GO, HOPE SEE SOME OF YOU SATURDAY AT BARTON, THAT THE RIGHT DAY, I KNOW THAT ONE AS I ORGANISE IT! November 25 SKIPTON AND BARTON DOLL FAIRHI, BEEN TO SKIPTON TODAY, IT'S SUPRISING HOW MANY DIFFERENT SHOPS THERE ARE THERE, YOU CAN GET EVERYTHING FROM ADVACADO TO STIEFF, ART TO DOLL HOUSE MINIATURES, THERE IS A GOOD SELECTION OF RESTAURANTS, ITALIAN TO CHINESE, PUB MEALS AND CHIPPIES.
I GOT TWO ANIMAL MANIKINS, I'VE SEEN THE PEOPLE BEFORE BUT NEVER ANIMALS. THERE IS A GOOD MUSEUM WITH A COUPLE OF NICE DOLLS, AND A VERY INTRESTING CASTLE. IT SEEMS A VERY GOOD TIME TO VISIT AS ON THE 3RD AND 12 DECEMBER THERE IS A MEDIEVAL FESTIVAL AND ON THE 17 OF DECEMBER, A CHRISTMAS MARKET.
I'M HAVING A GLASS OF MULLED WINE, THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS MADE ME FEEL FESTIVE. PRESTON SHOULD TAKE NOTE, SKIPTON HAS BETTER LIGHTS AND ITS A SMALL MARKET TOWN.

November 19 LAKELAND PLANGON MEETINGI WENT TO THE MEETING AT LEASGILL TODAY, MAREL DID A TALK ON FASHION DOLLS WITH LOTS OF PICTURES OF FRENCH DOLLS AND A VERY NICE ONE WITH ITS TRUNK.

THE COMPETITIONS WERE FOR DOLL ACCESSORIES, AN ANTIQUE AND A NEW SECTION, AND FOR A MADE DOLL IN A FRENCH FASHION DOLL OUTFIT, THERE WERE SOME VERY NICE COSTUMES ON THE DOLLS. I MANAGED TO WIN 2ND PRIZE IN THE ANTIQUE ACCESSORY SECTION WHICH WAS NICE.
WE HAD A JACOBS JOIN AFTERNOON TEA AND A BRAN TUB AND RAFFLE AND I THINK EVERYONE ENJOYED IT.
JOE'S BEDROOM FINALLY GOT FINISHED AND HE IS SLEEPING IN IT TONIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME TONIGHT AS HE STAYED HERE LAST NIGHT.

THE PHOTOS' ARE OF SOME DOLLS ON A STALL AT RIVINGTON, THEY ARE ARTIST DOLLS AND I THINK THEY ARE VERY GOOD, THEY ARE MADE BY KAREN OF "QUIRK STRANGENESS AND CHARM" AND ARE VERY DIFFERENT TO THE USUAL ARTIST DOLLS.

November 08 NEW DOLL FOR COLLECTIONHI, GOT MY NEW DOLL, ONE OF THE OLDEST I HAVE, SHE IS VERY NICE IN HER ORIGINAL OUTFIT.
