... and so I'm bringing you an "Advent calendar" with a scene or two each day of what the Playmoland people are getting up to in the run up to Christmas.

Today in Lowbeach-on-Sea, Marta and her son Franz are putting up their Christmas decorations.

I had to phone Playmobil today, as some of the spare parts I've ordered haven't arrived yet. I need them for some of the scenes from 13th Dec onwards! They have been shipped (from Germany), so hope they arrive before then!

I did say I needed the spare parts for my Playmo advent calendar! And that Marta might not have the stuff she needs, nor will some of the other characters you haven't met yet!

The lady on the phone sounded slightly bemused...

The ridge on the snowbank worries me... 😉

elephantoverthehill · 03/12/2018 22:17

Miljah Do you think there may be an avalanche? Time to send in the snow cannons?

Glad I found you. Was just thinking there should be a fred and here it is. Sits back with cup of tea eyeing up the Sylvanians........

Today Klara has gone skiing with her mum Ulrike. But Ulrike has fallen and hurt her leg. She can't get up...

The helicopter crew transfer Ulrike into a stretcher, so she can be airlifted off the mountain.

Ulrike and Klara are in the helicopter ready to take off, and the mountain rescue unit can now return downhill.

Sorry, the mountain rescue set only came with two team members! Maybe I should have borrowed a 3rd person from one of the other rescue/emergency sets! Grin

Just wondering if Beany Hill has the space for a snow bar?

TheMadGardener · 04/12/2018 15:21

Today's installment is genius!

MiddlingMum · 04/12/2018 15:23

I've said it before and I'm saying it again. This is the true purpose of Mumsnet.

Sadly, Playmobil don't do a snow bar. I did quite like the look of this Ski Lodge www.playmobil.co.uk/ski-lodge-/9280.html but couldn't really afford it this month! Maybe next year...
