Bear and owner re-united.
Bear with paws and holes filled, new suit, hat and he is clean.
Although he's story isn't quite finished.......

I have gone back to my needles and sewing cottons over the last few days.
I thought I would show you a "find".
A find for me as they don't sell cotton on wooden reels anymore.

The cottons might be a few years old, but have been well kept and in pristine condition. They belonged to a bespoke Saville Row Tailor, to me they are like gold dust.

I've been sitting in the garden using them, occasionally taking time to watch the bees at work.

We also made a visit to the farm, as always Bessie the farm dog was waiting for her cookies.

Bessie is on here so often she may as well be a Soggibottom dog.
She never fails to make me laugh.....

We feel honoured as Bessie isn't good with everyone she meets.
Wonder why she likes us ?

Wendy's bear is still sitting in the cottage window.
After being reunited with Wendy on Sunday.
Wendy thought he should go into permanent retirement in a good home.....
So here he is, sitting with Perkins, gazing out of the window, protecting the cottage.
I promise not to make him work too hard. Perkins had to move over.
Who looks smug now Perkins ?
