I don't feel I should give it to a charity.
You may be right Dizzi - in years to come I may get some money for it on a programme about banned toys!!!

A toy gun?
Rifle to be precise.
Younger daughter has just cleared out a lot of the stuff she had left here (for years I might add!)
What she doesn;t want will go to a charity, but one of the items is a toy gun she used when she went to a fancy dress party as Bonnie (from Bonnie & Clyde)
Goodness knows where she bought it, it being so totally un 'PC'.

Do I see if a local school drama department need it? How do they re-enact Al Capone etc without cigars & guns?
Do I keep it in case a grandchild wants to play with a toy gun or do I just bin it?
I mean, guns don't kill - it's the planks holding them that kill!
