Well that's nice to hear. It's usually the other way round.
Can't be Camberwick Green though, I only mentioned that last night. Lovely figures though. Really nice. I am still working on completing my list of figures. There are several hundred. There are same scale characters in vehicles too. Dr Mopp in his car!

Has Phil's parcel arrived yet? I want to know what I've made him buy.
Robert Harrop did whole collections for lots of other TV series. Bagpuss, Mr Benn, even Willo the Wisp.

Hmm. Maybe. I think the thing about the Camberwick ones is that they are the right size for action figures and look like action figures, even though they're figurines. They press that button.

Sounds Hasbro-ish. Is this a Star Wars thing?

Aaaah. Of course.
My interest there has cooled a little since discovering my Megatron can't transform. Still not resolved that.

Pinwig has added Sergeant Major Grout to his Camberwick figure collection. He now stands timidly behind Captain Snort (of Pippin Fort).

Mrs Dingle certainly is looking lonely.

I don't think there is a Mr Dingle. She's the post mistress and has a special dance she does with Peter Hazel the postman when he comes to empty his sack for her.

Absolutely true: youtu.be/wem1KPwuXIAAlthough in that clip he has already emptied his sack of the post he's collected and is reloading it with letters for delivery that Mrs D has sorted.

You are aware that "emptying his sack" is a euphamism?
-Ralph

Post by Pinwig on May 17, 2023 20:29:59 GMT
Of course. But that kind of filth has no place in Camberwick Green! Outrageous!
Peter Hazel is not nobbing Mrs Dingle!

Her happy dance after he "empties his sack for her" would suggest otherwise.

Are... are you saying there's an under the counter alternative happy dance video?

My childhood has been ruined. And it wasn't even Hasbro's fault this time. We have a That's not my Santa book for our kids and in it it says 'That's not my Santa, his sack is too rough' In a weird reversal, this was my parenthood ruined.
