I'm at Artisan Fayre dropping off a restock of Dummy 13 robots, fidgets, chapstick/lipstick holders, necklaces and hair pins.

With autumn approaching and after this hot summer, our feathered friends will be relying on garden feeders due to a poor natural harvest do please visit my garden section here for a great selection of bird houses, feeders and other garden ornaments.

About time to. There are far too many chancers who think because they have a 3D printer they can just print toys and sell them.

You cant. Every toy for sale must meet the Toy Safety regulations (2011). This is where the UKCA comes in to ensure toys sold conform.

If a seller is not UKCA compliant the toys should be avoided as they can't be verified as safe. Those reselling TEMU Tat should also be avoided.

Here at Pigletwillie - Maker of Things, everything with play value is tested, ensuring quality and safety for your child. I stand by everything I make.

What a great day at the Shepshed VJ event in aid of the Royal British Legion today. A big thank you to Chris Penrose and all of the volunteers especially the veterans who helped me pack away at the end of the event. Being disabled it really is a struggle sometimes, especially in a weekend with two events.

Next weekend it's the Motor show and Family fun day at Leicester Airport.

See you guys in Shepshed tomorrow supporting The Royal British Legion.

I will be supporting this event tomorrow in aid of the Royal British Legion. Being a Veteran myself this is close to my heart especially with VJ day largely overlooked.

My gazebo will be full of goodies for the home, gaming room, office and of course a huge spread of UKCA tested and child safe fidgets, toys and figures.

On Saturday I will be at the Black Horse in Hinkley and on Sunday I will be at Glenmore Park Shepshed for a VJ Day Commemoraton event in aid of the Royal British Legion, a charity close to my heart being a Veteran myself.

I hope to see you there.

A huge thankyou to all of the people who poped into my gazebo at the Evington Fete and the Mountsorrel Revival this weekend to chat, to look and to buy something. Many of you mentioned you had purchased from me before and that is a great testament that what I make is good quality. That is backed up by me standing by everything I make. Everything with play value is fully tested to UKCA standards, has a technical file and certificate of conformity as child safety is my number one priority.

Lots of people have started to follow this page and lots have made enquiries which is great.

A lot of the items I make may not yet be on my website but will be in due course. If what you wan't isnt yet on the website, just message me and I will either add it quickly or give you other options to buy.

As always, if you want a different colour just ask. I can make anything in colours you want.

Once again, THANKYOU.

Blimey, the hatchery is working overtime today. After getting home from the wonderful Mountsorrel Revival this evening, this skeleton Rainbow snake was found slithering around my kitchen floor, no doubt it will be joined by a few more over the next few days.
