That Doll part 3
I removed the dress and booties from the doll pretty cotton dress lace blue ribbon  and lace detail.
Hard to say how the dress came to be on the doll mystery you could say the dress was handmade and fit the doll perfect ? When looking for dolls like the lady who she belonged to normally old dolls are missing there clothes and have to find new ones or make them this is the case with this doll. How long she had the doll is a mystery made in the 80s most dolls are girls.
Looking in to the history Peggy nisbet made dolls of the royals small hard plastic dolls in traditional royal dress not a lot of information about the bigger fashion dolls made later by the house of nisbet.
Only information I have is from three I found sold these dolls are hand crafted and made them unique even the clothes are hand made had white socks and plastic Cinderella ( make) shoes. I can only find the HRH Prince William but I do believe one was made of Harry to. Mystery still goes on and I am still searching we know William and Harry didn’t have a sister so if this dolls not William who is it ?
Maybe I will never know but if I find out maybe be a That Doll part 4 .


The pretty dress and booties

Thanks for reading Julie

Hello Well I had a walk the other day ! I am only a small distance away from where I lived as a girl and my hubby lived just in the next street when we was courting but that’s another story. I had to go to the post office with a parcel bit of a walk not sure they like their jobs as they never look happy, I always thought you greeted customers with a smile well that’s how it was when I worked in a shop but that’s another story. Walking back my leg was aching but had to go to doctors not for my leg they said that it could be osteoporosis just gave me pain killers to go with the high blood presser not good but that’s another story. I decided to walk by where I lived as a girl I remember playing handstands on the wall the houses where quite new when we moved in, my friend Jackie broke her collar bone doing a handstand but that’s another story. No 18 remember it well had my own bedroom lucky me ! Loved art and painted a mural on the wall it was a girls face with crazy hair it’s stil

We went to Tenerife for a 9 day holiday.  I am not good on flying get travel sick but I was fine.Then on the Monday I got a tummy bug so went off my food a bit still didn’t feel right on the Thursday when we was coming home.  I took some dolls with me took some fantastic pictures beautiful place. So you can see why I’m glad it wasnt my case. But no body wants to lose a case!  But the funny thing is The flight seemed long and the plain was packed, only one other guy got on the coach to the airport and mick noticed his case was very much like his. We was very releaved to touch down at Manchester.  This is where it went strange there was a very long que at passport control and took forever we had rushed to get there quick. They now have them silly machines to read your passport and they wasn’t working very well so took longer.  Then we went straight to pick the cases up! Where was everyone they all seemed to have
