Evil Pig Dog Toy

My mum bought Erin this from Homebase for ?2.99, don’t ask me why (it’s a dog toy)… this thing seriously freaks me out, every time she makes it oink (which is often) I panic that I’ve inadvertently burped, and the pig’s name? Oink, of course. A quick video, demonstrated by Erin…

Super Soaker

Bought for ?4.99 one of the best value toys we own. Erin calls it her “choker, choker” which makes it sound more evil than ‘Oink’ but of course that’s impossible, because nothing is more evil than that pig.

A Large Box

Yep, it’s that old cliche. But here’s a picture to prove the point (this was the one that contained two brand new sets of Lego)

Balloons (including partially deflated)

They’re all over the house and it’s like world war three if I try and throw any out.

A parrot ornament

The next door neighbor donated this one and it has recently been promoted from a garden toy to the eclectic indoor selection (which includes that evil pig, did I mention it was a dog toy?). She talks and strokes it in a fashion akin to the ‘peeteeee’ scene in dumb and dumber (tried to get video but couldn’t catch the moment.

So that’s our random selection, what are your odd toys?

    just thought i would add a little story about random toys, when my daughter was young she decided she liked the look of small bottle which held the contents of child vitims, in order for her to get her hand on the said bottle ment she had to get rid off its vitims, she carfully tipped them all into a little bowl,
    not long later her 5 year old brother and his freind came and asked me for more of those nice sweeties that were in the bowl! eeeek
    yes you guessed it they had eaten all the vitims, in panic i asked my son
    me> did you eat them all
    son> no
    me> thank goodness
    son> i shared them with my freind
    me> panic
    quickly phonong the freinds mum and heading to the hospital the boys were kept in over night and were given a fuid to make them sick,( all was ok)feewww

    Ohhh, that pig is pretty ugly!

    We have a house full of ugly, matted My Little Ponies, which are hideous.

    Our dog usually claims all outside toys as her own and has a bit of an obsession with hula hoops, often find half mangled hula hoops in the bathroom for some bizarre reason!
