In my view "Will buying some new stock make me feel happy" is incorrectly terminated. There should be a "No" exit that feeds into "Delay - as short as possible" as you must consider that you might, at that precise moment, not be made happy by buying some new stock. I cannot imagine any situation in which I would not be made happy buying some new stock, unless it older tooling Dapol... 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

great central Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 4 hours ago, big jim said: Many years ago when I was an alarm engineer I used to look after a system in a house owned by three elderly sisters. In a not particularly good area of town they obviously had quite a bit of money, running a dance school in the city so although the outside of the house fitted with it's neighbours the interior was somewhat better. The house was full of these kind of dolls, every room apart from the kitchen, there must have been several hundred, all custom made. I overheard one of the sisters discussing their latest purchase with, I presume, the maker one day. The price under discussion was around £350, this being over 30 years ago. I always wondered what happened to the collection as far as I know there were no relatives to pass it on to. Walking around the house testing the alarm always reminded me of this..... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted November 1, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 1, 2022 Some years ago, went to visit one of my then girlfriend’s chums house on xmas day, and her little girl was proudly showing me the new dolly Santa had brought her. It had natural-feeling and warm skin, breathed with an expanding and contracting chest, and did the usual party tricks; wet itself, cried, giggled when you tickled it’s tummy, all of which was very impressive, but it had a beating heart, and pulses you could check in it’s wrists and neck. Burn it, burn it now with fire, send it back to hell, it is unholy, burn it!!! It was one of the most disturbing and unpleasant things I have ever handled. 2 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife was once given a collection of expensive Reborn dolls to sell in the charity shop in which she in involved. They are, amongst other things, regarded as very therapeutic for families who have lost a baby. However, I found them very creepy and couldn't wait to get them out of the house. 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones behind the wired window must be especially dangerous... On a whim, I googled them. Their opening times are Hours: Thursday Closed Friday 1:30–5:30pm Saturday 1:30–5:30pm Sunday Closed Monday Closed Tuesday Closed Wednesday Closed Its amazing that they can afford the rent on those opening times! I suppose they are house clearance and auction sharks, the Dolls are just a hobby... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
