Right...

Wondering if any of you wooooooooooonderfull fabby MNers can help (yes i'm sucking up Wink )

I'm looking for a toy van with a name up the side

The shop that sells them near me, has them on a display on a tall black carousel stand

They are about £3ish (may be £4)

Small van with name up the side

they only seem to do boys names

and I am Desperate for one with Charlie on it

Near me they dont have any in stock and may not ever get any in {grr}

Just wondering if anyone has anywhere near them that sells them and could they get me one and post (Will pay for toy and postage and a little extra if you want!)

PLEASE

TIA :o

Just buy any toy van, a small pot of enamel paint (or use nail varnish) and a small paint brush. Easy.

There is a garden centre near us sells them. I work with the owners son so will ask tomorrow for you. It's a lorry though not a van?

Cool, will see what I can do!
I noticed them because my nieces love trucks and they only had boys ones (their dad drives a recovery truck!)

:o I love Blackpool for the gift shops!! :o


Now, this is a long shot of the highest order! But If you happen to come across a Campervan with "Bessie" On...I would be hugely amazingly appreciative...but I do realise it;s doubtful; :o :o



Thank you again!

It's Ken Dodd here with my name changed back. There are a few sellers do them on eBay. Will report back later with my findings!
