Mines pretty obvious to Beanie Baby collectors. My kids used to collect them , but lost interest when TY produced so many. Their pocket money only stretched so far.
 Oh no, sound like a bit of a pun - that last bit.  :D

When I was in junior school I had to recount the story of Moses and the tablets of stone.
I innocently said that he'd dropped his PILLS and smashed them. Ive been known as
PILLY ever since.
