I called mine Patricia, can't remembert why cept i had a cousin patricia (actually i still do!) and my cousin patricia in 1963 wore a black leather bikers jacket and smoked, she was 16, maybe that made an impression? she runs a riding stables in spain now.

My sister had one of those black dolls, apparently they are worth a few quid nowadays

[chattykathy]

Hee hee!! :-D

[tamborine]

we were too poor to have dolls like those - I got my uncles old bike for xmas, with cross bar.....that was hard to ride.

[dothawkes31]

my older sister and i had a black doll each, primrose they were called.
i remeber tressy, her hair grows lol
but i never had one, I borrowed a talking doll from a girl at school one day and my mum put it on top of the big chest of drawers and i couldn;t play with it in case i broke it ; ( mind you, i was in love with troy tempest at the time
