Oooh, you have done well. I particularly like that silver piggy bank.
It's a little brother to this one here: http://theshoppingsherpa.blogspot.com/2006/03/corners-of-my-home-week-7.html
Nice loot! Where did you get the adorable Vespa magnets? I'm thinking ahead for Mr QM's christmas gift.
Hi Michelle
The magnets were from Don't Tell Phyllis in Kingston but I assume Unit Concepts would also have them.
If you're looking for scootery goodness for presents, the latest Holy Sheet! catalogue has blue and red scooter PJs which are pretty damned cool...
Oh thank you! I love Don't tell Phyllis. It will be worth the trip (especially seeing as Cassidy's is next door).
