Collections

[bigmamma]

Hi , do you have a collection of anything ? It may be something you have avidly collected over the years , or maybe been given as presents . If so , is your collection out on display or hidden in the garage or attic ? :-)

When I was a kid I used to collect soap. Not your imperial leather stuff but the sort you get at christmas in box collections.

Stange but true.

Hi Bigmamma
I have a thing for books i can't stop buying them i've filled up the bookcase and now i'm building little towers around it. I also collect crystal but they're in a box in the cupboard.

CD.

Did you ever have the ''SOAP ON A ROPE'' ie Henry Cooper?

[China Doll]

I did have two soap on a ropes. One was green and one was yellow. The yellow one smelt of lemons.... What sort did Henry Cooper have?

My favourite was one shaped like a duck!

[Louisa 69]

Oh a duck i thought you said something else for a minute cos you can get them also :)

[laurence2]

It was the shape of a boxing glove {red}

It was by faberge i think {early 70's}

[bigmamma]

How apt , Henry Cooper and duck in the same answer ;-)

[China Doll]

Ah.... No I never did have one of those! Wish I did though....

I even took them to school for show and tell one day :0)

[China Doll]

(Incidently... early 70's = not even a twinkle in dads eye!)

[laurence2]

Google Henry cooper soap on a rope and have a look.

I don't do this cut-paste thing or whatever you call it

[bigmamma]

China Doll , my mum had a huge jar of those soaps :-)
I remember getting soap on a rope ballet shoes as a child.
Laurence , I expect that Henry Cooper Faberge one will be a bit rare and collectible now. :-)
Yes Louisa , you can get those , usually sold around xmas time :-)
