OK, I’ll admit it: I’m old enough to remember the buying frenzy sparked by both the Cabbage Patch Kids, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
I was working in a toy shop, when the Turtles craze kicked off.
So … ?
I’m never surprised when another craze explodes.
This time? It’s for Labubu dolls.
About the only positive thing we can say?
Is that Pop Mart, the company that makes the things … ?
Has seen its share price, rocket!

Talking of the Turtles?
Did I mention my nephew was a fan of them, when he was younger?
My nephew was a fan of them, when he was younger.
That’s not totally irrelevant: he was over last night.
And, yes: he’s released another Rocket League video.

Just as a last thought, before we move on?
I caught the first episode of Wednesday’s second season, last night.
Billie Piper puts in her first appearance as Capri: the music teacher at Nevermore Academy, and a music teacher … who’s an ex pop-star!
I hate to say it … but isn’t Billie a bit young to be getting typecast?
