washing day...

Are you all familiar with our 'gators?



That's them last easter, for anyone who isn't. From the left, Lil, Mika, Yasmin and Alfie.

Anyway, thing is, they need a wash. Well, Alfie defo does. Lil is a bit better and the kids aren't too bad, but if I'm doing two of them I may as well do four. Now, I assume they're stuffed with man-made fibres, and in their bellies are plastic beads. So...I figure I should wash them by hand, because I'm just too scared to put them in the washing machine. Any tips? As you can see their fur has that 'old furry toy' look going on. I mean, we've had Alf for over 8 years, almost, Lil for 7 ish and the kids for 2. So I want to make sure they're safe - I will not be responsible for killing more than half me family! (Yes, I'm soft as shit) but I also want them to be clean, cos they're manky. Advice on brushing? And drying! Don't want them smelling like the swamps they came from!
