This pretty little ride in Bryant Park, Manhattan is New York's oldest carousel. It also appears at the start of the first Sex and the City film. I want it in my back garden.
Magical things at Bethnal Green Museum of Childhood. I love carousels. I use them a lot in my homemade cards.
A miniature wooden theatre, Bethnal Green Museum of Childhood (look closely - is that Spiderman on the right?) I'd love to be able to make something like this for one of my wee cousins, but it would probably take me until about next Christmas. And it would probably just end up covered in dust as well. Or somebody would stand on it.
More tea vicar? Afternoon tea and cake at Cafe Dollhouse on the Hill, Harrow, London. This charming little cafe looked like a gingerbread house. It sold lots of pretty handcrafts and had a cosy fireplace and an Edwardian dollhouse in the corner. I tried to spend some time writing in here (the cafe, I mean, not the Edwardian dollhouse), but naturally as soon as I sat down, a bunch of annoying posh schoolboys in blazers and boating hats came bursting in like a rowdy gang of mini Boris Johnsons.
