My most cherished was my labrador *Tina Sukis Black Magic aka Tina* she was 6mths old I was 7. She arrived a little earlier than xmas but on a dark cold snow filled night just before I was due to go to bed. Nobody got much sleep that night and many nights I slept in her bed. Sadly Tina died at the age of 16 once again with me at her side. |

Hello Uzzi........hope you are well........wow 16! A much loved family member I bet. I had a dolls house which my lovely dad made.....like you we also had a dog....a very large lassie type who promptly chewed the roof to bits! I think I cried for a week! :-( |

I think I must have been about five years old when I got my big teddy for Christmas . I remember being told by Mum NOT to look in Nans wardrobe ( what a silly thing to say to a nosey little girl ....lol ) , I peeped and saw him peeping back at me from the mysterious depths , so I knew before that Christmas day that he would be mine . |

We always went to Wales for Christmas with my grandparents so sometimes I wouldn't get my "best" present until we came home after Christmas but Santa would leave a note telling me it was waiting for me at home. |
