monoceros blogsa l's latest hoops and yoyo picture reminded me that I'd taken the two fellows to the US this year and have a few photos of them somewhere in the archives. (All around the world, Hoops and Yoyo perform a similar traveling-gnome-from-Amelie act - they're small and light and very stuffable in pockets.) Unfortunately, I only managed to get two shots of them during the trip and they weren't even taken by me. It was probably during the first few days that the pink cat and green rabbit got restless and my brother kindly let them take over his computer and hog the headphones. We have no idea who they were talking to on Skype, but they sure look happy.
And now Hallmark has released the proportionately-correct version of Hoops and Yoyo (and Piddles too!). Don't they look swell? I bet Hoops must be pleased that he's now larger than Yoyo.

(i'm hoping to get a piddles. not sure how though, hmm. and yes - they're now proportionate =) i suspect they were selling all the little ones we got cheaply because of the incorrect size!)

Posted by: tiggie at October 4, 2006 5:40 AMYou're welcome, a l. I want a piddles too. Sigh, I don't mind getting another set to get piddles, but I do wonder if this new set will reach our shores. I'm tempted to purchase one and store it at my brother's in Illinois, but that would mean waiting a long time before I get my hands on piddles!
Thanks, tiggie! I must've forgotten to tell you I cut off my hair! I had it cut at a small shop near Bedok interchange. $19! We'll do another fancy night out when you next visit, so bring with you a nice dress.
