Toyfair Lincoln

Oh dear!!! Was it because it was the last Sunday before Christmas and folks were out Christmas shopping or was it the credit crunch. Either way there seemed to be less people than normal at todays toyfair and even less people preparing to spend their hard earned cash.

It was our worst Lincoln Toyfair. I spent more than we took, though hopefully that will turn a wee bit of a profit. But listening to other traders it seemed that it was a struggle all round.

Those Banking CEO's have a lot to answer for!!

Toyfair - NEC

Well the snow came down on Saturday night, almost a couple of inches, and it was touch and go as to whether we would be venturing to the Toyfair at the NEC on the Sunday, December 15th. But by the following morning it was almost gone - we don't get snow like we used to in the good old days - so we set off.

Perhaps it would have been better if we had stayed at home, that way we wouldn't have wasted the day. It was a busy fair, one of the biggest, unfortunately not busy for us and so it made it a long day. I did manage to snap up a couple of potential bargains but thats all.

Maybe Lincoln will be better next Sunday.

TORCHWOOD

Outside the government, beyond the police. Tracking down alien life on earth and arming the human race against the future. The 21st century is when everything changes, and you've gotta be ready.

Is there a rift opening in Newark?? Torchwood's Capt. Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper have arrived at Time Was and they're ready to help in the fight against the Weevils and the Cyberwoman who arrived at the same time.

From Scificollector the Torchwood figures are highly detailed, fully articulated 5 inch figures. Wave one is now in stock but you'll need to hurry though as they are selling fast!!
