can i feel smug that both my childrens names ( and middle names) have appeared a few times on this thread?

If, and that wont happen cause I am almost 52, I ever had a girl it would have to be a monumental name

I love

and all other very girly, pink stuff.

Sorry for joining in this thread when I know that, hopefully, my reproductive years have gone

Oh mymblemummy - I knew there'd be one I forgot to put on my list. Lawrence should be there too.

(also Debbie's horse in the Archers)

Tolly from the Children of Greene Knowe. That was a lovely book.

I love Tolly

CantSleepWontSleep · 18/04/2008 19:45

I had noticed it was missing Phoenix!

mymblemummy · 18/04/2008 23:56

Hooray,
At last someone (two someones!) recognises it! Tolly from "The Children of Green Knowe" it is. Thank you Vulgar, I'm so pleased someone else loves it.
Surely Debbie's horse has been pushing up the daisies for years? I last remember her Tolly when she claimed she fell off him to cover up the beating she got from Guy Pemberton's son. And that was over a decade ago!
