Dolls travel world

A Canadian man has left his wife at home to travel the world with his collection of sex dolls.

Dave Hockey, 57, chose to fly his six fake girlfriends to destinations including the Grand Canyon and Niagra Falls - and claims his spouse "understands" his bizarre hobby.

He said: "My wife understands it is a hobby. She isn't threatened by the dolls she knows I'm not going to run off with an 80lb piece of silicone shaped like a woman."

The life-like dolls have cost Dave $25,500 plus thousands more for glamorous outfits, lingerie, stilettos and wigs.

A seven-week road trip across America was even filmed, with Dave taking his favourite silicone doll Bianca to meet other enthusiasts for a documentary.
