Fashion Doll Friday – Sweet Dreams Sindy 1978-80

“Sweet Dreams Sindy ” has been a Fashion Doll Friday model before but I thought she looked rather nice in the blue version of “Coffee Party” although I was thinking that pajamas might be more appropriate.

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

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.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge:Gears & Engines

Here are my photos for the Gears & Engines photo challenge. It was tough trying to come up with something since Vanda went and stole some of my ideas. The tram, the crane and what was the other one? Darn and Drat! I had to spend half the afternoon going through my pictures to find […]

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Gears and Engines

Gearing Up for a Challenge I don’t have a lot of pictures of engines close up so I’ve chosen to show pictures of things that work with gears and pulleys although in most cases you can’t see the workings very well. Cable cars work on a system of gears and pulleys, railways in mountainous areas […]
