More fun with charity shops and Ebay

So i've got more ability to go out and about now, which is nice. I've missed being able to walk more than 100 meters without feeling dizzy and exhausted.

We've had a few days out and about, not going far, but enough to get me out the damn house.

My muscles hurt. A few weeks of sitting around on bedrest I don't think has helped there. My ankles ache and my stupid deformed foot is giving me a lot of trouble with an old pain I haven't had to deal with for years.
Stupid foot.
I hate this foot. It's a jerk.

But I did come across some fun stuff in my brief travels, so let's talk about that! horah

I shouldn't be buying things.. but... Mystery bundle!

Yeah yeah, so I was saving and i've been doing so well avoiding temptation but having been hospitalised my self restraint sort of went out the window. I don't feel well, and new dollies cheer me up.

I purchased a couple of small things on Ebay I had wanted for a while as a celebration, but those aren't here yet, but I also stumbled upon a mystery bundle of dolls on Schpock (I'm addicted to Schpock, I need an intervention)

£5 for who knew how many dolls in a big ol' tub. I could only make out a few from the picture. A few reboot bratz, some descendants, a lot of barbies. But I thought it was interesting and I just can't resist a mystery.
for a fiver it was worth a punt.

Turned out the seller was the same lady I bought those decendants 2 dolls from a few months back, she remembered me lol.

So I had a doctor's appointment today and my mother came over to help me out, so I wrangled a lift from her to pick dolls up too. I'm glad I did because omg the bag she gave me was HUGE.


Look at this thing!

I had a rummage in the car but had to wait to get home to really look at it all. heh.

An update:

So i've been AFK for several days.

There's a good reason and i'm so sorry to anyone who's been trying to contact me.

a brief break from the purge

Never fear, I AM still selling stuff. To see the things i've got for sale please check out http://flyingpurplemonkfish.blogspot.com/2018/08/ramping-it-up-on-sales-posts.html

But while I slowly and steadily save up for expensive stuff, I also encountered some interesting things in the charity shop today and being weak as I am, a couple of dollies came home with me (I KNOW i'm WEAK!)

Ramping it up on the sales posts.

OKay I know I got all angsty and blah but days passed and I couldn't stop thinking about those damn dolls.
And if you can't get an idea out of your head, how do you lay it to bed?

So I contacted a few dealers in a last ditch effort thinking "okay, if it's utterly impossible then I can let it go" but it turned out it wasn't quite so impossible as I imagined.

It's going to be bloody difficult certainly, but I now have ACTUAL costs in front of me:
