Wow, well done on the Lego Saffronsmum!
Just out of interest, did the mr frosty come in a box and if so was the box blue and white, or red and white?
Mr Frosty came in a red box, not one of the oldest ones but they still seem to sell for a lot on e-bay, i have another one stashed away but its not complete so probably worth nothing.0 -

I was up really early this morning so got to the car boot just as it opened (a first for me). Well worth it tho, cos I got 14 pairs of trousers/jeans for £2 (for them all, not each!) from a lovely lady who is emigrating. All size 14 ... sadly two pairs of Principles trousers are too big for me (so will be dropped off at the charity shop tomorrow). They are all long or extra long, so will be spending the next couple of evenings altering them.0
