This is a story that I wrote a wee while ago after seeing something on TV about toys being treated as an investment. A post on the Forum the other day also discussed this topic, so here we are....
The fulfilment of Marge Simpson. (http://sheffieldwriters.ath.cx/SFStoryArchive/1157494187.doc)
Enjoy.

Thank you!
You have no idea how miserable I feel when I think of all the toy cars I had that disappeared along the way. :)
The other morning I was walking past the stalls on the Exchange Street market and I saw a toy car on there that I remembered instantly having as a child. I doubt I've thought of that car (it was a little truck with a conveyer belt on it) in 35 years, but it came flooding back to me.

I really liked that story too Joe. I get really depressed when I watch TV and witness the things you describe in your story. Good movement from scene to scene too. :thumbsup:
Many thanks for sharing it with us.:)

Professionally written and a good read. You really ought to consider publishing.

All will be arranged for you at that point. You will be made very welcome.

I enjoyed that, Joe. It's a very original story, well written.
