Pollocks Toy Museum

Friday 22nd October 2021 I went to the Pollocks Toy Museum with My Auntie Denise. We got there on the Central and Northern lines from Newbury Park to Goodge Street. The collection is housed in two atmospheric 18th and 19th century buildings in Fitzrovia, London. The collection is an eclectic mix of curios, each room filled with unique cases displaying toys from the past. Tin toys, teddy bears. dolls houses, puppets, optical toys and games from around the world adorn the winding staircases and creaking rooms. My Favourite thing was the Mickey Mouse toy. Afterwards we went to Nandos in Goodge Street where I had chicken burger with cheese, halloumi and pineapple! It was amazing as I really like pineapple. chips and garlic bread and a choc-a-lot cake which was delicious. Below are some pictures from my day and also if you like reading my blog please comment.
