Ronnie

Lately my blog has focussed on my fashion dolls so today I would like you to meet Ronnie, one of my baby dolls.

I bought Ronnie at a doll show in Adelaide in the late 1990s or early 2000s. Ronnie has no markings so I don’t know where he is from or how old he is. I just fell in love with his happy face. He is wearing the outfit that I got him in and like most of my baby dolls he has been given a toy of his own to love.

Ronnie doesn’t cry, talk, eat or use the potty. He’s just a regular doll for imaginative play. I don’t think he was intended to be a collectible doll either.

I came to Australia with my mother and sister Vanda in 1966 from the UK aboard the Sitmar liner Castel Felice. We settled in South Australia I lived in the western suburbs of Adelaide for most of my life. I became very interested in retro items in my twenties. It was always a dream of mine to have an old house and fill it with retro items. I have done it twice now. My main interest is collecting old things. They do not have to be valuable, only interesting. There is something reassuring about old retro items. I have all sorts of things including doll related items. My other interests are my beautiful pets, art and going for drives to who knows where. I also enjoy board games or doing a scenic jig saw puzzle on a wintry afternoon by the fire. My goal is to travel a bit more as there are some places I would love to see

Taswegian1957

Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008. We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company. I currently write two Wordpress blogs. My doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", which I co-edit with my sister Naomi; and "My Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.

Bad Photo Monday: Uncooperative Pets

I happened to notice that Cindy and Polly were sharing the couch and as this doesn’t happen often I hurried to take a photo. Of course Polly chose that moment to turn her head. I managed to make Miss Polly turn round by calling her name so did get a better picture afterwards. If you […]

Cee’s Oddball Photo Challenge

While out walking Toby and Teddy by the lake I saw this rock. The rocks had been there for a while but someone recently painted what looks like eyes on this one. I thought it would make not a bad entry for the Oddball Challenge.
