Boston royal family open new Kensington Palace

BOSTON SAW ITS BIGGEST RENOVATION IN HISTORY this weekend when a new castle was built for King Cheeky, Queen Nala, their family and servants. The castle is the biggest Toyland has ever seen, far bigger than the previous best castle in Toyland, Smallvania Castle. King Cheeky called Sunday, 'the best day in Boston's history'.

The cardboard walls extend almost the full width of Boston, overseeing the whole country, like palaces in Florence, Italy. It is the first residence in Toyland to have real-life working electric lighting, through the bedside lamp, and features realistic flowers for decoration. King Cheeky is said to have been delighted and 'a tad overexcited'. It has long been known how upset he was over losing his original castle and a substantial part of his kingdom (now Smallvania) to Chris and Spurry last August. Boston is very much in favour with Emily at the moment, though, as she was reported to have said last week that 'Boston is better than Smallvania. It always has been.'

Palace insiders say that the King of Boston may even be considering invading Smallvania and regaining what was taken from him. King Chris, his face green with envy, only commented that, 'There was no Toyland Express article when I built my new castle this summer!' That was because the editor was busy, your royal highness.

When asked what she thought of Boston's new palace, one resident gave a big smile and said, 'Oh! It makes me feel so patriotic! And I mean it's like it's not like the royal family can see everything in Boston. Most importantly, they cannot see into my apartment because its directly below! My Daddy also says it will work wonders for local house prices!

'Also my boyfriend got a job as the palace receptionist slash guard!' she added, forgetting to give her name.

The new palace receptionist / guard is White Teddy.

In brief

School disco a hit
SUNNYDALE JUNIORS - The school disco was another success, with toys including Kaitlin Cooper and Chico Gonzales dancing until nearly half an hour past their bedtime.

Queen Spurry returns from royal tour of Europe

QUEEN SPURRY OF SMALLVANIA returned from her two week tour of Western Europe on August 28th, having spent the longest period apart from her husband, HRH King Chris, since meeting him in 2005. Her tour covered seven countries in fourteen days, and Smallvania Castle released official pictures today.


First the tiny toy Queen visited Paris, going up the Eiffel Tower, which is around eight thousand times taller than her.


Parisian toys said the South African-born Queen was fearless as she posed for this shot, above, taken from the second floor of the tower.


Spurry also went on a champagne cruise along the river Seine.


She befriended another toy, the Northern English bear George, from Grimsby.



On the royal chariot (the coach). Spurry visited France, Switzerland, Italy, the Vatican, Austria, Germany and Belgium before returning to London.



Spurry visited the centre of the Ancient Roman Empire, seeing the Colosseum. Onlookers said the Queen had a glint in her eye whenever anybody mentioned an Empire. Spurry famously took control of half of Toyland with King Chris, removing King Cheeky from rule of the small toys.



Spurry bought herself a backpack and a little red notebook which also serves as a passport, when she visited an expensive dolls house shop in Germany. She experienced a luxurious tour through very expensive Victorian style German dolls houses.



In Amsterdam, Spurry enjoyed the large quantity of bagels on offer. Spurry is widely known to love bagels, many attributing this to her Jewish faith.




In Bruges, Belgium, Spurry bought this giant chocolate teddy because it reminded her of her 'sweetheart Chris', whom she missed dearly.


It remains to be seen how much Spurry's travels will influence her ruling style.
