Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Blinking hot - that's what it is........ Just been watching the news - Its hotter here than in Florida today - Its predicted 20C during the night (no sleep there then)  and over 34C tomorrow.  (I have long coated dogs too - trying to keep them cool requires ingenuity). You can bet your bottom dollar that there will be someone somewhere whose left an animal in a car as we speak. UNBELIEVABLE.

The only AC I have is in the car.

Question - do I sit in the car with the engine running to operate the AC and add to global warming and increase petrol usage?  (News also covered increased petrol prices too) - or melt.

Ah me! Isn't life a trial - still at lease we don't have a tsunami to worry about - just flooding predicted when the thunderstorms hit us.   We were told the other day that some places in UK have hose pipe bans because THEY HAD THE WRONG SORT OF RAIN- you couldn't make this up could you.

What would the English talk about if the weather was predictable.  You'd be able to plan for stuff - THEN- we would have something to talk about.
Thanks for letting me rant - I'll just go and melt.

Can I just say - I'm consistently overawed by all the bears placed on TT either in the showcase or for adoption.

The technical skill demonstrated shouldn't be underestimated  by any non-bearmakers who visit TT- and the creative imagination used generates stunning results.  All tastes are catered for - miniature to large, traditional to quirky.  The generosity of artists willing to share their techniques shouldn't be taken for granted either. 

Good grief - this sounds like a school report doesn't it................... :doh:  :redface:

The only problem I have is
a) being unable to own them all
b) thinking of something original to make.  (I can't keep up with the ingenuity of you guys)

Chocolate all round seems to be in order.   What say we all have some at the stroke of midnight 2006/7 and think of each other..............  Henceforth to be known as the TT TOAST.   :dance:

Congratulations - beautiful work as always. :clap:

The name - BLUE - too obvious really I suppose.

Hot flushes are now known as  'TROPICAL WAVES'

I'm melting here in UK  - its awful.  :doh:  At least if its cold you can get warm - its not that easy getting cool and trying to breath is an art in itself for some.

Anyone know a good rain dance or one to invoke thunder and lightening - only during the night you understand - King Arthur had it right in Camelot.   :crackup:

Penny - George is in Liverpool for the Golf..............

That's what it said on TV.........................

See what happens when you miss staff meetings................... :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:

ONLY JOKING TRACY   :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:

Each time you log in - Quy has put some new and exiting feature on here. We didn't know we wanted them but boy we wonder how we managed before without them .

Thank you to everyone concerned for your enthusiasm and technical know-how. (Where do I switch this computer off?) :crackup:  :crackup:

Was it something we said - or didn't say................................ :doh:

Please don't disappear - you a valued Member of TT.   See how you feel in a little while and pop back.

A pleasure to have met you. :hug:

:crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:

Moral - Never drive faster than your guardian angel can fly.

I needed a laugh today - thank you.

Where are you - we miss your posts.

:hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

We miss you Penny - Take care. :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Sent a test email .

Dream On............................................ :crackup:  :crackup:

Your cheering section is here Aleta. :dance:  :dance:

P.S.  We all like wedding cake :crackup:

Pics of the show if you've time for those sad beings amongst us who can't get about :photo:

Quy - You've done it again......... :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

Thank you Oh computer wizzard..... :dance:  :dance:

Shantell - you've voiced my problem exactly.  Thank you.

I think your bears are delightful and they do make me smile.

Kim - Thank you so much for your words of wisdom.   :hug: 
I really appreciated what you had to say.

Brilliant - people would love to get those.

I don't know what I enjoy most - your post topics or the little smiley thingys that go with them  (Note my grasp of technical detail here.....) :crackup:

Thanks for brightening up my day. :hug:

If TT ruled the world - these dreadful things wouldn't happen.

Thoughts to all involved and grateful thanks to the emergency services. They are always there.

Cheering section here Penny - working hard :dance:  :dance:

Take care :hug:

Thank you all very much for your kind comments. I'm glad you like it. :hug:  :hug:

Nina - Thank you very much.  I haven't worked out how to do that yet.

Bonnie - I used Pagebuilder - with a lot of encouragement from Penny.

I just love this one - I can't believe they won't tug someone else's heartstrings.  I'm sure they'll disappear faster than hot buttered scones. :dance:

size etc?

Congratulations. :clap:  :clap:

I've eventually managed to put something on here.  I'd be grateful if you would pop-in.

Thanks for looking (in anticipation).

Couldn't possibly comment - I've led a sheltered life..................... :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:

Oh thanks for that - I'll try it sometime. Your little chap looks really great.

Thank you for putting it so eloquently.

It could possibly  have been very difficult for the gentleman to dispose of items so greatly loved by his wife. Money was probably less important to him than finding a good home for her things.
