Dear  Morrrie and Salmyinka,

Thank you so much, they are brilliant. Funnily enough all three of those children are still alive, FIL hitting 90, and the other two in their 90s

thanks so much :-* :-*

lol just noticed morrie and I went for the same colours for their outfits, the reason i chose the beige/mustard/tan for the little girls dress is because there was a true colour pic a few days ago on theforum and the girl was wearing a very similar dress in a beige/mustardy colour  ;D

Sadly enough it didnt survive the war, but luckily enough they all did. :)

I suppose that is why such things are worth a kings ransome, because not many must have survived time.

great isn't it!  Why dont they make wonderful contraptions like that anymore? I want one.

I saw one the other day that looked like 2 bicyles side by side and a seat for the little one in between! It looked much safer than the ones you see today with little ones in a trailer tent behind the bicyle!  (was it one here i saw it i wonder?)
