... and so each day up until Christmas I will be bringing you a small scene from Playmoland. A kind of Playmobil advent calendar, with just a simple picture each day.

What's behind the door today?

Some snowmen which the children have made! Xmas Smile

They look very happy! Glad to see the Playmolanders are getting a White Christmas.

The children look as if they’re having a lovely time - what fun!

I love sledging. The playmo children remind me what fun it is.

Lucky Playmos, having snow to play in!

I managed to get through almost 50 years without trying it properly and then it snowed on my birthday in 2021 during the winter shutdown when there was nothing else to do. Best birthday ever.

I've rather been put off sledging by an incident which happened when I was 17, and collided with a tree at the bottom of the slop, resulting in a massive bruise to my knee. My sister thought it was very funny, as when I hit the tree all the snow fell off it! Xmas Shock

If that happened in Playmoland everyone would be smiling too.

They seem to keep smiling whatever the situation really, don't they? Xmas Wink
And they always seem to get snow at Christmas time!

I don’t think I’ve ever been sledging (not that I can recall anyway). Hardly ever snows where I am!

Pixiedust1234 · 18/12/2023 16:11

I much prefer watching others sledge than participate (childhood trauma 😬), unless it's being shown on You've Been Framed!

Good to see happy children!

Fortunately nobody had a video camera when I collided with the tree, otherwise I might have ended up on You've Been Framed! Xmas Shock

The Playmo children don't seem to have had any nasty accidents yet. Xmas Smile

They’re keeping a sensible amount of distance apart.

Oh how lovely! That’s real old fashioned Advent Calendar stuff.

Fabulous!. Have the players gone for a cocoa break?

No, they are musicians, so have gone for a beer! Xmas Wink

Some of the instruments look they’re made out of chocolate!
