Bunty

[remember]

Bunty was a girls' magazine that contained lots of comic strip, girly stories. Regularly there was a story about four girls all with the same name. I remember it was something like 'The Four Marys'. They were always getting up to some adventure or other. I was about 8 when I used to read it. Bunty would get delivered on a Saturday morning and I would race downstairs to pick it up. Then when I was finished my mam would read it after me.

One of my fave things to do as a girl was to dress paper dolls with paper clothes! Simple times.
I used to buy the books with press out ones all the time.

Re: Bunty

I was just talking about 'Bunty' on another thread. I too dressed her up in the paper clothes. Anyone remember 'Toots' and 'Tillie the Trier' comic strips? I mentioned on the other thread 'The Hall of Mirrors', a great story and 'A doll called Dinkydoo'. There was also a story in type called 'Little Miss Busy Fingers' about a girl who was living with a wicked aunt or someone while she worked as a seamstress. I remember another one about a girl in an orphanage with a wicked Mrs Crabstick looking after the children and an evil child called Becky' who'd keep getting the main character into trouble. Yeah, Bunty was a Saturday comic. I got Mandy during the week. My sister and I would fight to get Mandy first after school so my poor mother started buying Debbie too to solve the rows. then came Tracy. We'd pass them on to my cousin on a Sunday. She'd give us her Misty, which I particularly enjoyed.

They could've been the the little 'Bunty Libraries'..they'd be out monthly or every few months, I'm not sure. They'd usually be one long story in them. The other comics used to do them too. Dandy and Beano still do I think.
