Boogaloo Bears May 23, 2011

Hi Everyone

Just returned back from a fabulous weekend camping in the New Forest.

I entered the NTBAA awards for the first time and was absolutely overwelmed to received 3 awards. 1 first prize, 1 second and 1 third bear_wub

I have never won anything before so it was an amazing day to say the least, and after the horrible time I am having a work recently, it was the perfect lift I needed to cheer me up.

I met the lovely Sue from TeddyBuys and other wonderful bear artists. A special thank you also goes out to Lesley who organised the event - we had a great laugh in the ladies toilets, with a large syringe and some 'green gunk'!! (don't ask!!) bear_grin

A couple of you have asked to see my winning bears, so here you go, in the order of 1st, 2nd & 3rd.

Well done to all of the competitors, I don't know how the judges could chose, there were so many wonderful creations on show.

Hugs to all

Hi Lesley

I had a lovely day and it was great to make some new friends...as well as meeting old ones - you placed my table next to Jean and Bill (who I already knew as I attended a weekend course they hosted last year). It was great to meet another Teddy-Talker, Lisa, such lovely bubbly person and her charming husband), the lovely Cathryn of Cathryn's Bears and Brendan and David (Brendan's Bears) who had the table the other side of me. I met some lovely collectors who promised the bears would be going to very loving homes...so all in all, it was a tiring, but fun day.

Regards

Sue
