Tweedy Bear goes to Town - a photo on Flickriver

Tweedy Bear goes to Town

            You may (or may not) remember Tweedy Bear, (see below) made by Janet of 'Zero Nine' craft ladies..... He came to my attention one day in a craft exhibition at Sir Harold Hillier Gardens.

With the realisation that he had been made of Harris Tweed, he was soon en route with Royal Mail to Glasgow to spend his life in lovely Scotland.

The strangest happening: he arrived on Suzi's doorstep (a good friend to Clare and now our friend) exactly on the day of her birthday, the date of which he (and we) were unaware at the time.....

I soon received a few shots of this wee bear, renamed Angus, settling in.  I 'specially like the last photo where he is making friends with a Scottish 'coo'.

all your visits are appreciated
