The Rokka is a truly innovative toy that provides a world of  adventures for young children in one piece of play equipment. &amp;nbsp;It  transforms very simply from a rocker and Cornish fishing boat into a  playtable with two chairs , a bridge, a tunnel, a let&#039;s pretend kitchen  AND a grand theatre.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s why the moment children see it they will not stop playing with it!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

    <title>Brand NEW City Fire and Police series from Pintoy </title>
    <link>City-Fire-Series; City-Police-Series, Pintoy-Miniature</link>
    <description>
          &lt;div class=&#034;tabbody&#034; id=&#034;stockdetailtabbody&#034;&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;       &lt;font size=&#034;2&#034; face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;&lt;img hspace=&#034;10&#034; border=&#034;0&#034; align=&#034;left&#034; vspace=&#034;5&#034; alt=&#034;City Fire Station&#034; src=&#034;http://www.farawaytree.co.uk/blog/images/city-fire-station.jpg&#034; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;&lt;font size=&#034;2&#034; face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;We love the new City Series from the wonderful world of Pintoy. A new addition to the Pintoy range. This        traditional looking Fire Station with red brick walls has open access        for coordinating your fire engine and fire fighters. &amp;nbsp;This lovely wooden        toy fire station complements the engine and action figures in the Pintoy        City Fire series. Our favourite is the roof top helipad, the locker room        and of course the speedy access to the fire engine via a firemans pole!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;    &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div id=&#034;stockdetailtabbody&#034; class=&#034;tabbody&#034;&gt; 						    &lt;font size=&#034;2&#034;&gt;&lt;font face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;            &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;       &lt;font size=&#034;2&#034; face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;&lt;font size=&#034;2&#034; face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;The City police station is just as cool.&amp;nbsp; It has smart blue and black        detailing, a large front window offering views of the information desk, a waiting area and a great jail with bars on the windows.&amp;nbsp; Great imaginative play with a locker room with        lockers, coats, safety gear and certificates on the walls!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size=&#034;2&#034; face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;The city police car is a great  addition to the City Police set. It is a smart        wooden car for a  fast game of cops and robbers with bars on the back        window to  keep criminals at bay and an open front for figures to be        placed  inside. &lt;/font&gt;     &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;            &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;       &lt;font size=&#034;2&#034; face=&#034;Arial&#034;&gt;Home assembly        is required and all items are for children aged 3+ years.&lt;/font&gt;     &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&#034;margin-top: 0pt;&#034;&gt;            &lt;/p&gt;

    <link>http://www.farawaytree.co.uk/blog/2011/09/06/1315345452872.html</link>
    <description>
          &lt;img hspace=&#034;5&#034; border=&#034;0&#034; align=&#034;left&#034; vspace=&#034;10&#034; alt=&#034;cake&#034; src=&#034;http://www.farawaytree.co.uk/blog/images/cake1.jpg&#034; /&gt;My husband recently turned &lt;strong&gt;40&lt;/strong&gt; and I was frantically hunting for a cake (required for Sat and it was now Thurs! Arghhh)...On my last minute hunt for the most fabulous cake, I came across a beautiful website with some awesome looking cakes!!&amp;nbsp; For Goodness Bake is run by Alyson, who is based in Hampstead.&amp;nbsp; She supplies  lots of the local coffee shops and bakes cupcakes/birthday cakes to order!&amp;nbsp; A quick call and voila - Alyson supplied a tasty looking cake and with an amazing service!&amp;nbsp; Take a look at her &lt;a href=&#034;http://forgoodnessbake.yolasite.com/&#034;&gt;website&lt;/a&gt; for more info.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div align=&#034;justify&#034;&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Speaking about cakes...wooden cakes... have you seen the best-selling &lt;a href=&#034;http://www.farawaytree.co.uk/branching-out-high-tea-shape-sorter-set.ir?cName=educational-toys-and-games-educational-games-and-puzzles&#034;&gt;Branching out high tea set&lt;/a&gt; by John Crane?&amp;nbsp; This one is definitely for the sweet little girls at play having a tea party.&amp;nbsp; We love this gorgeous wooden two tiered cake stand and shape sorter  high tea set.  Comes with 15 different types of brightly coloured cakes!&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img hspace=&#034;5&#034; border=&#034;0&#034; align=&#034;absMiddle&#034; vspace=&#034;10&#034; alt=&#034;high tea&#034; src=&#034;http://www.farawaytree.co.uk/blog/images/hightea.jpg&#034; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Who can resist a wooden cake when it looks this scrumptious?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

          &lt;div align=&#034;justify&#034;&gt;We thought we would keep it simple and share our thoughts as to why wood is best. We didn&#039;t think we needed to say too much but it&#039;s clear, wood is around forever, for generations to come.... Loads of traditional wooden toys at The Faraway Tree and with new products coming very soon! &lt;br /&gt;
