Great pictures Jim of William and Claire
I see that global warming thing is having an effect on your Summer in Norfolk, and there was me complaining about the weather in Brighton

gorgeous baby and wife Jim- unfortunately i don't have a teddy bear. As for what martin said theres a weather warning for the whole of england tomorrow- they expect minimum 30mm of rain in one day!! but up here might be dry - now that is global warming/drying- whatever.

I don't know. It can probably count unless it is blonde.

I teddy bears, but mine are all camera shy. Perhaps the ones shown on this thread will help them get over their shyness. I'll speak to them. If I hear them speak to me, I won't be seeing you for a while.

Have to go to Norwich tomorrow to pick up the boy's latest investment, A "brown" Steiff Rupert Bear ltd edition of 1973. The money we have spent on the boy's bears (Especially the Steiff and Merrythought bears), I could have bought a used Sub ND!!!!!!!

Whilst I'm there I might see if they have this guy....



Then we can have a JJ of our very own...to beat the hell out of!!!!!

Just got back from the city....have a new addtion to the family...

LE Steiff Brown Rupert No 703 of 1973. UK Exclusive...our bear shop only got 2 sent to them.

*Steiff catalogue pic

He now sits alongside this guy...
LE Steiff Rupert Bear LE of 3000. UK Exclusive. Bear Shop got 6.

*Steiff catalogue pic

As well as this little fellow...
LE Merrythough Rupert Bear. Limited edition of 10000 however due to copyright issues over 7000 were destroyed before shipping. This is like the Paul Newman Daytona of Rupert Bear soft toys. Ebay duly provided.


*Not my pic...looks a little bandy legged!!!!

Now all you folk who get your freebies from your ADs, I have never gotten any freeb from an AD but Robert at the Bear Shop gave William a free bear worth £20 and also gave us a card entitling us to £40 off of our next purchase.

Excellent stuff from a great traditional shopkeeper!!!!!

By the way Jim, I completely forgot about Rupert. I used to have to watch that because my sister liked it. I always hated his accent
