WEEKEND REFELECTION AND THE WEEKEND ROUNDUP

Time for WeekendReflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter is G and Giant 

This is, or rather was my own walky talky doll.  She said Mam, Mam.   I was given it one Christmas as a child.  Of course her/his head was attached then.  I use both gender because my Mummy 

made 2 sets of clothes.  I dressed my DOLL in boys clothes and called him DINKY

When I dressed my DOLL in a DRESS, she was called DINA.



I brought her/him broken ( although she/he could still walk) to my last  home in N.Ireland and the DOLL remained resting in the roof space for 40 years.



When I DISCOVERED I was moving yo Australia I took her to a Special Repair shop.  I told them the DOLL’S history.  They were not sure if they could fix it and i was still unsure if i was going to take it with me to Australia.




However, unbeknown to me, a black lady overheard my story and said she knew of a little black girl that would love my DOLL and would give it a good home.

My mind was instantly made up.  If they could fix my doll, then this little girl could have it.  The lady promised to make a set of girls and boys clothes for it.  Everyone was DELIGHTED.



This final photograph of DAWN at Ballyholme Bay, Bangor.  It is what I am using for my REFLECTION shot
