when i was younger we had a caravan that was near a massive forest called fairy glen. my nanna would take me and my uncle, saying if i had been a good girl the fairies would have left some trolls for me, hidden in various places. i used to find these trolls in the wierdest places around the forest, and believed in the fairies. it wasnt until i went to the same place with my little brother and my nanna asked me to go ahead and hide some trolls for him to find i realised it had always been my slighty older uncle hiding them for me!! thanks nanna!!! i believed!!!!
