They're cute ha ha. FYI I have 2 little Charlie Bears kitties. A white one called Snowdrop and a black one called Stella. Got the bed half changed, then when that's finished and the bedroom hoovered, I'll crack on with the spare room. All those bears to comb...
I didn't have to chase Bertie about the place, Suzy. After his long journey, he was happy to get brushed.
(Note to self...get a life FFS!)
everybody gots to have a hobby...................don't forget to comb their bear pits and bear arses!
"Got the bed half changed" - yeah, putting that bottom sheet on must be utterly knackering, have a lie-down.
Shut it, cheeky git! I think I've got that carpel tunnel thingie. My right wrist's been really sore, and a couple of my fingers are doing that weird jerkie thing at times.
Collette wrote: "They're cute ha ha. FYI I have 2 little Charlie Bears kitties. A white one called Snowdrop and a black one called Stella...."Collette, when my youngest grandchild was born 14 months ago, we bought her a Charlie Bears bear called Butty.
They're not exactly cheap, are they???
Not long after, I bought a small bear for myself because he looked so sad in a shop window. He's by Merrythought and is called Windsor, but I've renamed him Harald.
I thought I'd rescued him from a lonely life but the following week, his identical twin had replaced him in the shop window.

Repetitive strain injury.

I wasn't interested in soft toys but my sis had a cloth creature, called PussBun, as it was of indeterminate heritage. She left it on a bus once and my poor mum had to try to describe it at lost property.She also had a sort of bear called Mincynut as its head was made of astrakhan which does resemble said meat product.

Hi Val. Those bears are lovely. Yep, cheap they ain't. These are my last 3 Charlie Bars. D gave me them for Easter. Gumdrop, Peardrop and Dewdrop.
. £128 or something they cost him, and that was with money off. They're totally gorgeous though.My new bear Bertie was a bargain. Extra special cos the shop owner made him herself. He's super furry and 17 and a half inches in size, and including the gold ribbon I bought for him, cost just under £20. I'v put his pic on my profile (last one).

Offensive, much?
Is it just me, or is the edit post bit not working on any of the threads today? Bloody nuisance!
It's not working for me either, Collette. I'm trying to do the footie.
It's a real nuisance, Lez. I was trying to edit my post on the Nelson thread earlier and had to in the end type it all out again, c and p it, then delete the original post and repost.
Yes, that's what I did. Bloody nuisance. Think it's ok now.
I'm not really into Stuffed Toy collections but I do have 5 that were bought for me and, because they have huge sentimental value to me, I can't bear to part with them.I also have my Bear with Rabbit Ears that was bought for me on the day that I was born by my beloved Grandad - who sadly died a couple of days before my 8th Birthday. He is pale yellow and white, has lovely orange coloured Eyes, and is called Albert - and I'd just be completely devastated if I ever lost him.

Editing a capital I in your own would be a great start (and would prove whether you were BSing about being able to edit - that button's just not there for me).
Stuffed toys?
We've got a houseful of them - bears (mainly Tatty Teddies but one Charlie Bear), dogs, a Polar Bear, three Pandas, a couple of Unicorns (one of which is Phoebe's current bed), a Leopard, a Whale and a Speedy Gonzales.
They seem to be in every corner of every room, occupy all available shelf space and cover half of the bed. I get told off for just chucking them on the floor so have to arrange them nicely on top of the cushions from the bed which I have to stack up in the corner of the bedroom. This is also another favourite spot for Phoebe who pushes the middle of the three teddies out of her way so she can curl up in its' place :)
Oh, yeah, I nearly forgot about the half dozen or so bloody Meerkats!
(Also unable to edit posts so any typos are there to stay!)

It's not in my nature.

"I don't want hoist my own petard unnecessarily, Brass." - One is hoisted BY one's own petard (basically a bomb goes off in your hands). The way you wrote it sounds vaguely phallic.
Just going to see if I can edit? ... Yes, I can? - how weird is that?!! ;o>

It's finally working again then.
Looks like it? ... either that or my ancient antique of a Laptop is running so slowly behind the rest of all of your Internet Devices that it hasn't managed to catch up with the glitch yet - LOL!!! ;o>

This one only just turned up a couple of minutes ago.
Picked up my new face mask from a talented crafter friend of t'missus's. Posted pic on my profile (don't worry it's just the mask without me in it) - offered the choice of the two which d'you think I picked? Got some looks in Tesco!
Also added photo of Emily, the Romanian rescue pup I should be adopting into the Brass menagerie shortly. The photo's not great - she looks a bit skewiff in it but she's a petite 5 months old mixed breed with some Chihuahua in her and she loves attention. Not sure she'll require heavy duty walking but she's young and small enough for the cats to adapt to ....... I hope.

I was looking at band ones online a few days back. F*** paying £8 to £12 for one though. I'll just stick to my SA Fishing face shields and my plain black and pink masks.
Emily's cute as a button. How many kitties have you got?
Today I'm being a lazyarse, then tonight it's wine and horror movie time.

I did indeed go for the eyes. Paid her a fiver but she donates it all to a local cat rescue or a wildlife sanctuary in Whitby where she has a caravan. Her masks have an inner piece in which you can insert some folded kitchen towel - stops the drooling for a bit but not the twitching nor Tourette's outbursts.
"Today I'm being a lazyarse" - crikey, there's novel.
Cute wee baba kitties as well. Good on her. Do the drooling, twitching and swearing happen often then? You're some catch, Mr B, ha ha. ☺️Actually, I got my butt going and did some of the kitchen, then had to fish my poor dead red tailed black shark out of the tank. NOW I'm being a lazyarse.
Ohhh nooo, Collette?!!! ... not the new one that D bought you?!! ;o<
Yep, Suzy. My original Blackie went 2 months or so back and this wee one was the 2nd replacement. Don't know what's gone wrong with them. ☹️

Had confirmation, it IS a real gig. Support is Connor Selby (young blues guy, terrific live, very underwhelming debut album) possibly as a duo, maybe acoustic rather than his band at 2pm, Hiding Magpies at 4pm so all done by 6-6.30? They reserved me 3 tickets by FB message.

My God, Biden looks seriously old. and is so careful with his words, I can only imagine how he deflates after keeping it together for the cameras.Anyone else going to watch the TV debate with him and The Trumpet on Wednesday?
Aren't we all suffering enough with everything else going on already?! - LOL!!! ;o>
