First up we have the obligatory "generic crap" pages, featuring all the stuff you never knew you wanted, because you didn't. Who could have lived without some cheapo bubble bath featuring the head of one of the gladiators off of Gladiators? Or a teapot in the shape of what appears to be a Nazi bear? I do, however, covet the Sonic The Hedgehog quilt cover, rather badly, and also the Helix treasure chest cash box thing, just because.
Disney videos! All the classics are here, like The Jungle Book, and The Little Mermaid, and... oh wait. It's not The Little Mermaid, it's a crappy spinoff featuring "43 minutes" of non stop fun. I think I've seen one of these episodes before. Ariel catches crabs.
Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes upon the following pages. I have nothing remotely derogatory to say about them. Indeed, I love them like my own brothers.
And finally - Barbie! I definitely had the one at the top, where you paint stars onto her hair. I think I still have that frilly gold skirt thing somewhere too. But I don't ever remember having 'My big fat Gypsy wedding' Barbie. Also, on the other page, why has Sindy got her legs crossed like she needs a wee?
Have I made your day sufficiently awesome now? Good.
I had that ballet themed jewellery box in the second image as a present from my aunt when she got married. She put a ballet slippers necklace in too, which I found on ebay late last year selling at a whopping £1.99. The box lid broke off and my mom made me throw it away even though it still played Swan Lake just fine, and I've been trying to replace it but I haven't seen the same one for sale anywhere.
ReplyDeleteThese presents didn't cost much, I thought they both would've been more costly, but they were some of the best gifts I ever got.
You've made me go from ugly laughter to ugly sobbing.
