It's Springtime in Eastgate Park for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

... and so over the next week or so, I'll be bringing you scenes of everything that's going on. Today there are several people jogging in the park. Preston is out for his morning run.

Giovanni serves them all with their ice creams.

Jerry has a strawberry lolly and Linnet an orange one. Graeme chooses a pistachio cone. Chery has a strawberry cone, but she shares hers with Wren, who is too small for one of her own.

That's all today's scenes, but there will be more tomorrow!

I now want to know what Playmo you bought from the boot fair @SweetCranberry !

Giovanni is doing a roaring trade today isn’t he? Good for him.

Cerys and Eurgain wearing the same tops made me chuckle!

Juanita is a woman after my own heart, sitting on the bench while everyone else exercises!

Brilliant again @SoMuchToBits

That was so good! Well done and thank you @SoMuchToBits 🌟

Lord Zachariah Fortescue and the posh buggy made me laugh 😁😁

Ah thank you so much @SoMuchToBits, such a fun time and l loved the matching tops , that is something that's so realistic and happens all the time in RL . Loved it !

I misread that as "ruining". Oops..

Mainly just a few figures, but it’s boosted my fledgling collection!! They all already have backstories … it’s so much fun!

thank you for this thread - I had been hoping for another one!!

I love that Lord Zachariah Fortescue is wearing a crown. He’s very posh!

Do tell me all about them @SweetCranberry - preferably with photos! I'd love to know their back stories.

Tomorrow will be the last day of Springtime in Eastgate Park. What is everyone hoping for tomorrow?

Thank you so much @SoMuchToBits - I think I've worked out the reason playmo food portions are so large is because they do so much exercise...

I loved the dog in the carrier yesterday - reminded me of when I worked on the top floor of Vogue House (an accountancy firm not conde nast) and the fashionistas went through a craze of coming in with tiny dogs in their handbags!

A communal BBQ

Not loads yet, but Gianni in the red t shirt is a bit of a rascal and keeps dumping/getting back together with Bianca from the Pizzeria (who, admittedly, is hard work). The ladies in front are all sisters - they get on well but occasionally fall out over who’s been chatting to handsome Sven (not pictured). They’re sensible enough to stay away from Gianni though …

@SoMuchToBitsdid I see on a thread from last year that you’re looking for a magician? I picked up one from the bootfair - not perfect condition, but I’m happy to send it your way?

Ah, @SweetCranberry your Gianni is our Trent. He is from this set. 4649.jpg (391×396) and the lady in front with the yellow pony tail is our Yrsa from this set. 4949.jpg (525×368) We don't have the other two ladies.

And I did get a magician! This one. 4667.jpg (398×381) Meet Enzo Kazam!

@SoMuchToBitsOh this is amazing! So nice to see their origin stories, so to speak
Can’t wait to see what happens next in Eastgate Park …

I hope everyone will enjoy tomorrow's photos! There will be quite a few! :-)

It has been great seeing everyone's comments on this thread! Hope you will all join me tomorrow with the last photos from Eastgate Park. Which is in Lowbeach-on-Sea as I'm sure you all realised!

As @DirtyGertiefromno30 (excellent name) has previously mentioned, I think they’ll all enjoy an open air concert.

Todd is a dude.

Any update on whether Anders lost his ice cream? It looked a bit perilously perched.

OMG Jerry! I bet he watches wilderness documentaries.

Surely it will rain on the last day of spring?

Just caught up.. great to see the skatepark!! Wish I could ride a board.. it always looks such fun .. loved Buggyfit also especially so eof he babies also waving their arms around! I'd be on the bench though also during press ups ..

Today? I'm still hoping for the big picnic !

Anders managed to eat all his ice cream! Jerry actually comes from a set with a campfire...

Rain never really seems to happen in Playmoland. Or maybe it always happens at night. That would be convenient!
