Angelo Callaghan from Newtowncunningham has recently created the funky Frocksrock Dolls with her business partner, Nicki Cole. These dolls are pretty funky too, as your child and her doll get to wear identical fashions. Frocksrock have set up a giant doll’s house in Santa’s Lapland at Doagh Island in the run up to Christmas to give people the opportunity to see and buy their dolls. The craft shop in Tullyarvan Mill also has some in stock.

Angelo finds her Chrysler Voyager 2.5 XD a versatile car with loads of room for humans and dolls!
How long have you had the car?
I bought the car a year ago. It was bought privately from Dublin, where it was being used as a VIP chauffeur driven vehicle for the likes of the golfer Tiger Woods.
Have you any plans to change?
No, I am totally in love with the car. It is just so versatile. One minute it is being used to take the children to school. Then the seats fold down to transform it into the works van.
Is it expensive to run?
It does over 35 miles to the gallon so it is about the same as a standard saloon. We have just had new tyres fitted though, which worked out at €120 euro each! The walls are re-enforced for extra safety, which is compulsory for MPV’s
Best and worst thing about the car?
The legroom is fantastic for everyone. The children love the in-car entertainment in the back. We have a fold down television on the roof with wireless headphones. The children can watch a movie if we are on long journeys. It’s great to hear the laughing coming from the back! The only negative is the security glass that has been fitted. People can’t see you waving at them when you drive past.
Does it ever get a wash?
We live in the country so the roads tend to be covered in mud from the tractors, especially when the spuds are being dug up. Last week we went to the Guildhall in Derry to a craft fair and I was backwards and forwards all day. I didn’t want to turn up with a dirty car so it got washed three times that weekend! Not since though I might add!
How would you help motorists given the chance?
People with four or more children have to drive MPV’s by law to ensure the passengers are seated safely. Most MPV’s have large engines and with the increase in tax, it makes drivers of these vehicles feel punished for upholding the law! VRT should be revised too.
What would you most like to be driving around in?
I have a soft spot for the Mercedes C180 coupe. I don’t know if I would get all of the boxes in the boot though!
