UK brag!
« on: October 19, 2014, 03:49:29 PM »
So! I haven't been posting as much as usual because my husband and I have been busy in the UK (mostly Brighton) for the past few weeks and haven't had a ton of time to log on and post. But I have had time for collecting, of course! I came home with quite a haul. Most of this is from eBay, but I did find a couple things in the wild!

Awesome retro stuff! The key covers were at a shop in Brighton, the mug from Forbidden Planet in London, but the shop in Brighton also had them, along with a coin purse which I believe featured Glory.

I found these at WH Smith. I'd never seen them before and they were 3 for 2, so I got three of them. While I don't recommend the "sweets" in them, they do have cute little goodies in them, and for 89p, they're a fun little thing.

Each one has a sticker (love the designs!) and a little extra surprise. There are ribbon necklaces, combs, tiny framed pictures, etc.

Books! :D While most of these were purchased online, two of the annuals and the middle storybook were discovered in Cardiff! The annuals were at an arcade shop named Troutmark Books and I found the storybook at a street market the day we went back to Brighton.

Finally, the ponies!

I did pretty well on price for all these, especially the sea pony; she was only 99p! The random Rainbow Dash in there was a charity shop find and I couldn't leave her behind. Looking forward to bringing these girls to the pony spa! <3

And there you have it! It was a fantastic trip overall and it was nice to come home with some nice new pony goodies.

Those little eggs with goodies inside of them are so neat! I hope I can find some around here just so I can experience the surprise inside. What a fun collection of goodies you have obtained! Hopscotch is one of my favorite ponies. She looks to be in really good condition. Congrats!

Love it all!

The key covers are just totally adorable.  Looking at the books makes me want to curl up with a cuppa and read the stories :)

Congrats :glitter:
