10 Things You [Probably] Didn't Know About...Tom and Jerry!

Ahhh how we've missed these! It's been a little while since we did our last 10 Things You Didn't Know About...feature. It's just all gone wild here at TruffleTowers with more and more cool products hitting the store and everyone getting nice and ready for Christmas. Exciting!

So! To kick things back off with a bang, we've been searching the cyber-space-web-net for some of the coolest, most interesting and unknown facts about one of the world's most-lived cartoons, Tom and Jerry!

Taking us right back to our childhood of watching this at home and at school on rainy days when we couldn't go outside. (Remember the big old TV's??....scary). Sit back and take a trip down memory lane with us as we teach you some of our top Tom and Jerry facts. Enjoy!

1) Tom and Jerry were actually lined up to star in 1988 classic flick 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit', sadly legal smegle issues stopped it from ever happening happening. However! The cartoon team had already featured in live action films before including the 1945 'Anchors Aweigh', when Jerry stole the show in a dance sequence with Gene Kelly!

Such a little treat fr you here folks! Ever look back at old pictures, find something from the depths of the darkest cupboard, or even see something online that makes you just scream....Ahhh!! I remember that!?

Well! We've been busy collecting some amazing pictures that are just bursting with nostalgia goodness ready to show you guys and send the memories flooding back. If you were born in the 80s but grew up in the 90s like many of us here did, these should transport you back to the school playground or those long hot summers. Enjoy!

No party was truly complete with out PARTY RINGS!

Remember trying to work out what the big art attacks would be? Art Attack showed us we could all create something special with just a few little odds and ends from around the house and of course....more PVA glue than anyone would possibly own. Amazing!

Tucked away at the back or your school sports hall was a weird and wonderful mash or metal, wood and rope. It was only until everything was pulled into place and belted down that you saw the brilliance that was the climbing gym! Loved it!

TruffleShuffle.com Buyer's Look Of The Month - September

I get nostalgic pretty much every day working at the Truffle HQ, but can't help but go a little weak at the knees when new Care Bears merchandise comes in.

I collected the cards, had the cuddly toys, watched the cartoon, had the pencil case, all of it! If they there was tinned spaghetti in the shape of Care Bears (which I expect there most probably was), I'm sure I would have had that too!

So this month's look is centered around our super cute new vintage print Care Bears t shirt on the popular and uber flattering rolled sleeve boyfriend tee (which has proved a massive hit with you)! I am also loving the current trend for midi skirts (no embarrassing moments on blustery days - phew!) and simply teaming with some classic Converse All Star high tops, you simply can't go wrong!

And to when you are unwinding after all that shopping, why not take your tea in this super cute Retro Care Bears Mug! Ahhhh...
