Just thought I’d give you all a sneaky peek at the bears going to The Great Yorkshire Teddy Bear Event in Sheffield next Sunday.
Hope some of you will be able to join us there :o)
Here’s the Woods going:
From the top: Amabilis, Oakley, Tupelo, Birch, Willow and Beech
And here are the Thistles going:
From the top: M&M, Lulu, Lilac, Bluegrass, Maisey and Aji
They are looking great, Katy! Twelve is a great number! I hope you have a wonderful show and can relax and enjoy. :o)
What a super sellection of bears Katy…I hope you have a great show and meet lots of lovely collectors.
Warmest Hugs,
Sandi @ Ess D'Ess Bears
P.S. I just noticed you still have the old BS on your blog list…you may want to change this Katy.
Good luck! I know you'll do great!
Hugs, Kelly
The Clan is wonderful. They all look so well behaved and anxious to meet a forever "hug".
Have a wonderful show, relax and enjoy the surroundings. But don't forget to pack the peanut butter and honey. (o:

All of Us
Thanks all. They all made it to mum and dad's yesterday without too many fights in the back seat of the car, but you can imagine with 12 bears there was quite a bit of the 'he pushed me, she touched me' sorts of arguments…
Whew….bet your Mum & Dad were glad when that road trip ended.
Hugs,
Prudence
Well actually they were very good on the way down the road. There were a few elbows used I think, but very little fighting as such. They did say that they felt they were in an undignified heap in the box so they are (mostly) sitting on our settee communing with the hug. I say mostly because M&M is at the moment standing beside the TV looming over Jessop and Lily our lovestruck bears. I think we might have to intervene if things get too hot.
Dad
Hello Katy,
I wanted to stop by and wish you the best of luck at the show. I would imagine not many of your little friends will return the same way they came. They'll all be off on wild adventures sending you postcards from the wilds of Australia or icicles from the Artic or palm fronds from Panama. Who knows? Do they have palm fronds in Panama? Anyway, have a great time and a safe trip!

Thanks all :o)
Wait a minute…….back up, please. Heaped in a BOX! Did Mr. Alan say "heaped in a box"?
Mr. Alan, I am Prudence Clearwater. I am old, very cranky and I do bite. You do not, DO NOT want to get on my "wrong side".
Please tell me that you were joking. Please.
Prudence
If you were joking, then I sign off with –

Dear Prudence,
It was Katy wot done it, honest! I took them out of the box so they could stretch their limbs, so don't blame me! They were in there for their own protection though, as unrestrained bears in a car are NOT a good idea. Imagine if I'd had to brake suddenly, they'd have all ended up squished against the windscreen, and it is a big clear plastic box so as a temporary home not too bad, just a bit too cozy for long periods.
Heaps of hugs to you too – now I must go and finish those display cubes!
Alan
Mr. Alan,
Hm, let me think – ah, yes – backseat, seat belts are words that come to mind.
You sound nice so I will send you –
Heaps of Hugs,
Just remember I am older than you – much older, older than dirt (M tells me that all the time).
Prudence
Thank you Prudence, I feel well hugged now. It's really nice when an experienced bear takes an interest – we don't talk about age here, experience is the thing, and you sound very experienced indeed.
The display cubes are all done and I've washed all the sawdust off me too. I just have a few wee touches to do with paint in the morning so that they look even smarter. Then all the bears can sit in and on them on Sunday waiting for kind people to take them home to their hug.
Heaps of hugs to you too,
Alan XXX
Yes, you have been hugged.
Please take some pictures for us to see. Oh, did LT tell you that LuLu is coming across the pond to our hug? But after the show, she wants to be with her kin, then we become her adopted kin.
Hugs,
P
P.S. Hi, it's the Mom here. Boy, you are good….Prudence is so impressed with you – you certainly charmed the old lady. A first. Thank you. (o:
Hi Clan, Hi LT,
We wish you great success at the show this weekend.
Give LuLu hugs and tell her that we can't wait for her to arrive here. (o:
Hugs,
All of Us
They are all so gorgeous, I hope the fair was a great success. Bear Hugs, Catherine x
