Bobby

18 February 2005

304
Ooops! A day behind again. This photo is for yesterday. It breaks all the PaD 'rules', since I didn't take it yesterday; however, I did think about it, so that's okay... isn't it? No matter. It's here, and I'm counting it for yesterday, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. So there. Flame me if you want, but remember that I have a very, very sore leg and that I am practically immobile (says he shamelessly playing up his current severe pain :D). Take pity on me and say hello to Bobby the Bear. I bought Bobby for Liam's first Christmas (away back in 1992), and he quickly became his favourite cuddly toy. They were inseparable, and Liam wouldn't sleep if Bobby wasn't there with him. Now, of course, Bobby has been forgotten, and relegated to the bottom of the wardrobe, underneath the old bags, shoes and toys. He has not been abandoned, though, because when we have our annual pre-Christmas clearouts, Bobby (along with some other cuddly toys) always seems to get a reprieve from the black bag. I intend to introduce you to some of Liam's other 'friends' (as he used to call them). Tomorrow is Alfie's turn.

Ahhh, so sweet and well cuddled looking. How could you even THINK of throwing him and his buddies out?

He still looks cuddly if well used. Funny how kids attach to their toys when young.

I love the shiny nose. Gotta love your approach to the "rules" - thought about it on the day, teehee that's great.
Ian Clowes19-Feb-2005 22:38
Hey - I thought it was a real dog too!!! Looking forward to the other wee 'beasties'.

One day you will tell the tale to your grandchildren, Stu.

Fantastic photo - an nice story to go with it.

Oh Stu - I'm anxious about your current incapacity and so hope you get back to good health soon. Don't worry about the 'rules' - everyone makes their own and as long as you are doing what you set out to do then it's fine. Just get well soon.

awww poor bear.. pity card always works. very nice shot of the bear.. For a second I thought it was a real dog lol.
Guest 19-Feb-2005 17:47
From the thumbnail I thought Bobby was a real sheepdog. Great idea...can't wait to meet Alfie! Your poor leg,Stu. I really hope it's getting better.
Johan Toll19-Feb-2005 17:32
Great idea Stewart and a very well composed bear he is :) Say hello to Bobby from me /Johan
Guest 19-Feb-2005 17:29
I thought Bobby was a real dog for a moment there.
My oldest is to the point where he won't admit to having a bear, but he won't let it go either.
I should get pics though. Great idea.
