Lola Rose Bracelet TSV 16/07/14

[loveallthingsitalian]

Some of the games I remember (too old for others). Loved Hulu hoop , skipping and skates. Even to this day the one thing which totally baffles me is that thing -scissors, paper,stone, or whatever it is called. What is its point?

Ps should eat less Hulu hoops and use one of them now!

 

[ERICS MUM]

Anyone remember pick-up sticks ? long thin wood or plastic sticks, with deadly dangerous points at each end (wouldn't be allowed now, elf n safety). You threw them down onto the floor and then pulled them out of the jumble one at a time without moving the surrounding ones. Of course everyone else playing would swear blind that you moved a stick - how could you prove otherwise ? Our "matches" always ended in tears and the child who felt most aggrieved usually snapped a couple of sticks in half from spite !

Now you are talking! Or juggling balls against the wall or hopscotch. I think we must have played jacks indoors when it rained or hopscotch outdoors. Then there was a thing with elastic that 2 girls put aroumd their waist and you jumped in and out of and twisted around and jumped out of - a sort of cat''s cradle for the body.

How could I have forgotten about hopscotch? I always had to find a nice flat piece of stone/slate, as it was much better to throw onto the right square. Skipping with 2 skipping ropes - jumping into the middle of the ropes singing 'someone's under the bed, whoever can it be?'

 

[Anna]

Has Nikki started putting the 'gold' name tag on all her pieces now?

I don't like the gold tags at all. I've had to take them off with pliers and thought I might damage the stones.

Oh me too, loved loved hopscotch only we used a shoe polish tin to throw. Loved to throw balls up against the wall and do fancy moves to rhymes. Now feel sorry for the householder who had to put up with it!

There have been nicer ones in the past though SCW, do you remember the carved flower necklace which had a matching bracelet in the same style probably a couple of years ago. That was much more inspiring IMO, whereas this TSV doesn't shout 'Designer' to me. Granted it will sell well, but there are loads of very similar bracelets out there on the market and I think it should be something a little different for a TSV.

they have been trying to get rid of that matching bracelet for ever!!

That was probably the Jennifer necklace with matching Thandi bracelet - I've got 3 of the necklaces and they're my all-time favourite pieces of Lola Rose.

I must have driven our neighbours up the wall with my pogo stick - I was on it for hours - bouncing up and down the pavement. Nightmare!

Funny thing about those skipping rhymes was they were exactly the same wherever we moved when I was little - north of England, south, wherever. I remember pickup sticks! You can still buy them so I might invest in a set for Christmas - from me to me.

One of my favourites too Thatu, I have it in a peachy colour and wear it a lot in the summer as it's really pretty. I didn't buy the bracelet to match because I find that style with one heavier part always annoys me when it drops round and hangs underneath your wrist out of sight.

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

i rather like this one but want one with all bright colours in it

I used to annoy my next door neighbour constantly hitting a tennis ball up against her house wall, till eventually she would come out and tell me off. Happy days!

 

[loveallthingsitalian]

Amazing how many games involved annoying poor neighbours with balls! Also a rope around a lamp post to swing around.

We saved our parents a fortune in cheap games.

Hope you get your wish SCW !

hehe ive always wanted one but there has really been none bright enough yet, though they will fit me cause they are sooo adjustable & ive tried one on in JL so i know they do fit my very very skinny wrists

If the TSV is the Cassidy bracelet SCW it should be alright, my wrists are 6 1/4 inches and that one pulls to it's tightest on me and fits OK.

they have had the cassidy on Q before, but i was in john lewis the other day looking at the lola pieces & tried that rock crystal cube one on and it fitted very nicely on my about 5.5" wrist

 

[whitesnake]

I do like this style and have it in quite a few colourways. I would have been very tempted with this but as its both the Elemis and Nailsinc TSV's I think I will have to sit this one out. Like another thread said somewhere - why are TSV's like buses? Nothing for ages then two or three come at once. Oh heck, I just remembered a Liz Earle TSV is coming up too. I am going to be skint!!!!!

 

[Baloo]

I used to play Jacks at school!
