Paddington, Scout and the Easter Egg Hunt 8.

DANNY BOY: "Aye begorra! Would you lok at that, Orson!"

 

ORSON: "What is it, Danny Boy?"

 

DANNY BOY: "Well, I have a bucket full of pretty green Easter eggs that match my scarf!"

 

ORSON: "Oh they are very lovely, Danny Boy. I have just come across this enormous green egg!"

 

DANNY BOY: "Aye begorah Orson! That's wonderful! It's the perfect size for you, and it's very pretty. The Easter Bunny must have meant you to have it!"

 

ORSON: "Do you really think so, Danny Boy?"

 

DANNY BOY: "I do that, Orson! That's your special egg! Today you have the luck of the Irish!"

 

DUCKIE: "Oh Orson! Danny Boy? Have you seen my Granny anywhere?"

 

DANNY BOY: "Aye Begorah! I told you before, Duckie. I haven't seen her. I'm sorry."

 

ORSON: "I'm sorry too, Duckie. I haven't seen her either. I'm sure she's somewhere around."

 

DUCKIE: "But I've looked all over the place, Orson!"

 

ORSON: "Don't worry, Duckie. I'm sure she'll turn up very soon. She's come such a long way to be with you, she wouldn't just up and leave."

 

DUCKIE: "Oh I hope you are right! I'm so worried!"

 

PADDY: "Hullo everyone! On behalf of Scout, Cousin Paddington, Bogart, Jago, Daisy-Maud, Rosie, Cornelia, Orson, Danny Boy, Algie, Flock, Sapphire, Pearl, Prince Maurice, Freddy, Duckie, Daddy and myself I would like to wish all of our Flickr friends and followers a very happy Easter! May the day be filled with lots of fun, laughter and a chocolate Easter egg... or two! We are sending you all lots of special Easter big little bear hugs and snuffly kisses!"

 

Paddy has managed to share my thoughts most eloquently. A very happy Easter to you all!

 

Danny Boy, made by the same friend who made Jago, Daisy-Maud and Orson, has a touch of the 'Oirish' in him with his emerald green scarf. He has an open mouth as he likes to sing and comes with his own songbook, "Irish Airs for Teddy Bears". He has a wobbly head to give him animation when he's talking to you, and is made of English mohair, has paws of ultra suede and eyes of glass. Quite a happy-go-lucky little character....

 

Orson, named after the little bear constellation, was made by the same friend who made Jago and Daisy-Maud. He comes ready dressed in 'trousers' made of German mohair accessorised with embroidered braces. His paws are ultra suede and his eyes are glass. He is described as being a little bit serious minded but very friendly. He's fine once he gets to know you.

 

Duckie I saw when I was at a Sunday market on a stall of homemade knitted and crocheted items. She caught my eye straight away with her happy, smiley face and bright colours. I think she finds life with my bears intriguing and perhaps a little confusing, however she is learning.
