IONA'S DIARY

 

Saturday 16th February: Lunch with Saskia, Bury Lane Farm shop

 

Had great fun with Saskia in Bury Lane Farmshop last Saturday. We hadn’t met before, but we hit it off straight away. Saskia came with Gillian and Tony. They had lunch with Karin and Wasi, while we had a good look around the place. Saskia brought me a wonderful present. A duffle coat made by Gillian. I love it and I just had to wear it. Gillian thought that the lining needed a bit of sorting, but I just didn't want to take it off.
 

Saskia found some wooden flowers she wanted me to see. They were pretty and would look lovely in my room.

I must say, I do look very scruffy! My hair is a right mess! At least Saskia looks tidy and smart.

Saskia found some very pretty tins. Those sheep do look cute!

Look at those Easter Eggs!

Gillian would love that basket!

 

Karin would love those geese! We both thought the baby deer was very sweet!

 

I think it is fair to say, that we have become great friends! We must meet again real soon, Saskia!



 



LET ME COMPARE THEE...

 

Comparisons may be onerous

but they are interesting!

 

From the left: Yasmin (Trendon 1971/2), Molly (Trendon 1971/2), Iona (Trendon 1970), Natasha (a wide face Sasha, Trendon 1970)
 

 

Yasmin’s and Molly’s hair are of a similar quality. Very full and a little stiff. Iona and Natasha have hair which is a lot thinner and silkier. I really like Yasmin’s hair do! It gives her a certain character. Just a tad wild, like her namesake! All the face shapes differ slightly, as do the eyes.

 

Two 80’s Trendon Sashas have been added here. Rebecca and Imogen.  Rebecca is a ‘Sailing Suit’ (I have the suit and a tag). Imogen could be either a  ‘Schoolgirl’, a ‘Tunic’ or even an ‘Anniversary’.
