Doomsday prepping!
Poor old Ted, he wanted to be a doomsday prepper but I told him it was ill advised. But he said, why not, he’s been in a bag and in hibernation for so many years, what harm could there be in it? And so he was let loose last year.
He’s taken up residence watching the birds arrive for a bath and purloined a few items from our “preparedness stock” that he likes or feels are important.
I guess I would feel that way too if my last 5 minutes of fame was a photo 62 or more years ago. So, say hi to Ted, my Mum’s bear who doesn’t have a birthdate. Probably before WWII I imagine. He’s been in the wars and was patched a few times by my Mum before he left home many years ago. So, he’s really pretty precious to me.
I suspect there are quite a few Teds out at the moment. I fear for his future, I am not sure he is going to hold the special nostalgia that I have for him for anyone else (including my daughter) and that kind of makes me sad. So for the record, and the fresh air, he lives again. I just don’t think he wants to go through another war, however caused!
