No I looked a couple of weeks ago. It is a beautiful toy - and I am concerned dd2 doesn't have a WOW present although she is getting a sewing machine which she knows about also Dh told her about sims pets Angry so feel she won't have any surprises

It is madness but if my dd didn't have a wow present and knew about two of her others then i would get it (she only gets toys at Christmas and on her birthday though). Sorry I'm probably not helping!

No way I could resist this, especially if you really go to town insisting there is no way she will get that. But she does really.

I've got it. I was the talk of the shop Blush

It IS beautifully made and it will totally make her Xmas. I expect she'll keep it forever. Feel a bit sick but justifying it by not buying myself the fake tree I wanted for the sitting room
