TY Beanies are adorable, there is no wonder my friends and I were crazy for these little soft toys. The TY beanies came in all sorts of varieties, whether animal or bear. They each had their own special name, and between us, my friends and I owned and could name pretty much every one going!
One of the teddies is a cat who goes by the name of Fancy. Straight away, this name seems very appropriate to me. She definitely does look quite fancy, a posh kitty indeed. But it's her fur that makes connections for me. She is made of a very soft, almost silky, clean white fur. This reminds me slightly of the cream you get in Fondant Fancies, so naturally I could make a connection with her name straight away.

My son is obsessed with transformers and went on and on for a bumblebee costume he had seen in an argos catalogue.
He was then invited to a fancydress birthday party which was the perfect opptunity to buy the costume he longed for!

King of Queens is an American sitcom set in New York. The King in question is Doug Heffernan and the Queens they relate to is actually the suburb of New York he lives in with his wife Carrie. I think this title is a really clever play on words and sets the scene for quite a funny sitcom in my opinion.
Doug and Carrie are the main couple in this sitcom and it?s really them that the whole show revolves around. They have a nice relationship but bicker like most couples and they really play on each others stereotypes to get the laughs out of the audience. For example Doug is rather fat and so they definitely play this up on the show. He is generally always eating my Carrie facilitates this by buying him or making him his favourite foods. Doug is played by the very funny Kevin James who has been in movies such as Hitch, I Now Pronounce You ...
