Flog It Blog It, things are going ‘Retro’!

Molly The Wally goes Retro for Christmas.

It is a retro Christmas with the Furby and the sodastream making a comeback. 


Parents were warned today to prepare for a Furby invasion this Christmas. Not seen since 1989, yes that furry mechanical fiend, which resembles a malevolent hamster crossed with a Smurf has had a makeover. Along with the return of the ‘let’s get busy with the fizzy’, Sodastream and the ‘it’s good to talk’ Trimphone, we are going retro. The Furby, the fury toy from hell, would go off in the wee dawn hours talking random rubbish and worse when it started repeating ‘Feed Me’, as that only made me hungry too. The only way to stop the demonic creation was to remove the batteries and sometimes even that didn’t work. Dogs boycott ‘The Furby’ it will give you nightmares. Bring back the fondue a bit of cheese and bread is great and I want a cabbage patch doll, just watch me rip it’s face off in ten seconds. Canter back to the past with my little pony and let’s party like it’s 1999! What’s you retro fav thing?

And to get you in the mood, some memorable Dallas J.R. quotes

Sue Ellen, you're not a wife, you're not a mother, and you sure as hell are not a Ewing!

Go to bed Sue Ellen, there's nothing uglier than a woman who can't handle her liquor!

When your holding a double barrel shotgun use both barrels.(J.R. to Sly).

Look up the word cheap in a dictionary, and you'll see his picture there!(J.R. about Cliff Barnes).

Oh Barnes, you just get dumber and dumber every day.

The only thing that is screwed up in this office Barnes is your head, which I would be more than happy to serve on a silver platter if I weren't worried about my family getting food poisoning.


Ray never was comfortable eating with the family; we do use knives and forks.

  1. I'd like a scalextric... watching the cars would tire me out I expect. Mum was wondering about flock wallpaper - I'm hoping she's better soon... Deccy x

    1. Brilliant idea Declan with the scalextric, hours and hours of fun. Flock wallpaper excellent for scratching. Hope your mum is better soon.

  3. When you said retro, all Mommy could think about was the hours she spent digging for worms and catching grasshoppers and caterpillars. Not forgetting collecting mosquito larvae (WHATEVER FOR!). And kept them on her dressing table...
    We don't think that's what Molly meant by retro, Mommy!

    1. Furries of Whisppy what ever was your mummy collecting those for? I think you lot need to teach your mum that bug collecting is a waste of time, just eat em. My top one is catching flies in my mouth. My human hates it particularly when I try to give them a big fat kiss afterward.
