The Cadeby Light Railway was a narrow gauge railway in the garden of the rectory in Cadeby, Leicestershire.
In the early 1960s the Reverend Teddy Boston became rector of All Saints' Church, Cadeby. Boston was a lifelong railway enthusiast and wanted to build a miniature railway in his new garden, but the cost proved prohibitive. Instead he searched for a full-sized narrow-gauge locomotive. In 1962 he purchased Pixie, a W.G. Bagnall 0-4-0ST from the Cranford quarry. The quarry owners donated a short length of track and two wagons and the Cadeby Light Railway was opened.
Over the years, the Rev. Boston built an extensive collection of ex-industrial narrow-gauge rolling stock which ran on the extremely short line in his garden. Although the Rev. Boston died in 1986, his widow Audrey kept the railway open for nearly twenty years, holding regular open days. The railway finally closed in 2005; subsequently the majority of the collection has been amalgamated with the Moseley Railway Trust at the Apedale Community Country Park, though it wasn't revealed what happened to Pixie.
Las hermanas que vienen de la nieve están tristes porque aquí no hay ni gota me las tendré que llevar a Suiza.
This is little Pixie. Even though she looks like an Australian shepherd or cattle dog, her mother is a Rat Terrier. Doesn't she have the most beautiful blue eyes?
I only fostered Pixie and her mother for about a week - they left for Rover Rescue near Chicago last weekend, and each of them has already been adopted!

Hollywood starlets aren’t always famed for their academic prowess. Which makes Kay Panabaker a welcome exception. The pixie-faced actress, who co-stars in director Kevin Tancharoen’s glitzy remake of the 1980 high school musical Fame (in theatres on September 25) boasts the poise, brainpower and inveterate seriousness of a young Susan Sarandon. At 19, she’s even packing a bachelor’s in history from UCLA: The diminutive Texas native earned the degree at age 17 while balancing television roles on ER, 7th Heaven and Summerland.
Exhausted from the Fame promotional swirl, Panabaker’s sweet demeanor never divined an ounce of irritation during a recent Style Section L.A. photo shoot at the Palihouse in West Hollywood — even when we asked her to don leather pants on a sweltering August day.
Read the rest and see what she's wearing at Style Section L.A.

As usual, I can't make up my mind. Poor Pixie, I took off her mohair scalp (seen in pics below)... and tried on these two others that I was planning to put on future custom dolls. And I think I like these better....
D'oh!
And I always wanted a mohair weft scalp too... I guess I can save it for another doll later.
Basking in the sunlight streaming through the window. Our Norwegian Forest Cat. We got her from the RSPCA at Bawtry as a scraggy thing who had been abandoned near Doncaster. She was called Jade ut we renamed her Pixie. Who could abandon such a beautiful creature?
Pixies let me take their picture, and actually a lot more that morning after a late night gig in Stockholm. Bless You for that Dear Pixies!

I took this photo that's already in my photostream and played around with it. I got a new lens for my camera, cant wait to get out and play around with it.
Very basic, very small sheet metal box camera; B+I shutter; fixed focus, single-aperture lens.
Takes 6x4.5cm images on 620 or film. Mine came with a 620 spool (as shown here) but 120 fits just as well. Boxes from the Pixie Flex are labelled as 120 or 620.
Made in Cardiff, c.1950.
There were four models (listed by McKeown}, all dating to 1950. This is either model I or II; models III and IV had leatherette covering.
There was a little magic in their back yard. As it happens, it was the place where a little sister could turn her big sister into a princess and make her dance as if she were light as a feather.
And then she could make her dizzy and fall down. But that's another kind of Pixie Dust I'm told.
-Taken at a family session in Ft Dix NJ a few months ago. I absolutely adore this family and wanted to share one of my favorite little moments that happened during a wonderful afternoon with them.
