Young bear leaves for Torquay!

The tiniest bear so far (only 3 and a half inches when standing) left for Torquay yesterday. It's the first Bovis Bear to move to the West Country. He's going to love the pasties and ice-cream. Lucky bear!


 Cream Teas! Sea! Marvellous!


 He actually received news of his posting on Sunday but unfortunately, had been A.W.O.L since the 'Bye Portrait before last - i suspected NoNo had made off with him but during a finger-tip search of the bears' room, he was found nestling (snoringly) in their folded up photo blanket. Thank heavens for that!


We were interrupted by Safko. Must have been his turn...

   Have a smashing life little, tiny bear!

  1. oh my! he IS tiny!!
    maybe the bracing sea air and pasties will beef him up a tad :)
    i so enjoy seeing your 'boys' all together (i'm sorry, but to my mind, all teddy bears are male...)
    hope you have a great weekend :)

  2. Hello Claire! I do too - i always refer to them as my Boys and dread the day when someone may ask for a female in a frock (which request i would politely ignore!).
    Do you know, these tiny knitted bears take longer and are significantly more fiddly than the large sewn ones.
    Happy weekend to you too! X
