Bunny

"Bunny is really important to me. Created by my Mom in 1955 when I was 11 years of age, as a consolation present when I wasn't allowed go to visit my cousins in Dublin with my two older sisters. She,sadly, died two years later aged 52 years. Bunny may not look great now, but she has traveled the world with me. Left behind, only once, in Cape Town she was posted to me in Hastings, North Island, New Zealand, proving she is well able to travel unaccompanied ! What's more interesting about her is, while she has had many overcoats, her insides are original; these are 'laddered' silk stockings Bunny may not be a huge historical treasure,but to me she is 'GOLD'"
