Tim's Easter Fun

_______________________________________________________________________

Tim's collection continues to grow, and here are some of the items he acquired recently, a couple of which have a specifically Easter theme!

A friend gave Tim an intriguing kaleidoscope, which has two rotating brass wheels at the front.

'Toys that get away' - there are a few toys which Tim has spotted over the years, but wasn't quick enough to buy one at the time, and subsequently discovered he had missed his chance.

'The Hen House' was a product sold over Easter by Marks & Spencer, here in the UK. It is a tin of shortbread biscuits, with very good sound effects when you remove the lid. Tim gave some of these out as presents, at a family gathering over Easter.

Then a the supermarket Waitrose, Tim found a famous optical illusion that has been recreated in chocolate! The Duck/Rabbit illusion is often presented as a drawing, although we have seen ceramic versions and even versions made as a lapel badge, where it appears to be a duck, but when you rotate it 90 degrees, it now looks like a rabbit. Sometimes called a 'Dabbit' (or should that be a 'Dubbit'?) it is a powerful illusion. But here the pleasure is two-fold - once you have enjoyed the illusion, you can eat it, since it is made of chocolate - and that is not an illusion! Again Tim gave some of these as presents for his family.

Lastly, Tim demonstrates a set of 'wobblers' , which wobble their way across the table. Sometimes referred to as oloids.

That kaleidoscope is absolutely awesome

We should try and find the “ones that got away” for Tim somehow. Even if it’s sales listings online. I’m gonna start looking right now for the Slinky. Maybe if Tim makes a list of all the toys that got away and we could all search for them.

I loved the Hen House, the concept was funny. Good on Tim for always showing off these

Doing a video game collab with Tim would be one of the most fun things ever!!! I would even put the controller up for a board game collab. Abalone is my board game of choice. It’s a rather unique sumo style marble game. Tim just seems so fun!

Tim, enjoy your novelties. Thank you for sharing with us.

Well I thought that the shape illusions created by the wonderful Japanese guy couldn't be topped, but here's an edible one, even better! The kaleidoscope you have here is a great piece of engineering. I love the radiating iridescence you get when the wheels turn slowly. One could while away too much time with one of these! Splendid as ever. Thank you Sir! 🌟👍

Tim just got out off bed. You can tell by his hairdo 😄😄

I wouldn't mind playing with Tim's easter eggs, if you catch my drift 😉.

It's pass Easter but I don't mind watching Tim demonstrating his collection in connection with the said festival.
