Then at the end of the tour we are going to have a party in my honour!  Well I… Read More »Northern Tour

We were grateful that there were no visitors this week after all the arguing last week with the seagulls and Naughty Bear.  In fact the seagulls had yapped and yapped so much that their beaks were aching, therefore Koob beach was very very quiet.  We all sat peacefully watching the tide go in and then out and hoped the warm weather would come soon.   Sonny the Sea Tractor

Afterwards I popped in to see my friends Eddie and Sue at the Post Office. I sent all my parcels… Read More »Fred goes to school

I hate the seaside. It smells of fish and there are seagulls that nick your food. It’s not fair, I didn’t want to go to Koob but Kind Bear dragged me down saying that she wanted me to go. Then he spent the whole time with Sonny, Harry and Netty while I got stuck with the pesky seagulls. All they did was moan moan moan moan moan and they kept… Read More »Moaning Bear having a moan

Nice Bear and Naughty Bear stayed with us for a couple of days and throughout that time, the seagulls and Naughty Bear argued constantly. We went for a ride and Naughty Bear was complaining about getting wet so the seagulls started teasing him which he did not like. When Netty and Harry came to visit, Naughty Bear complained that he didn’t like children and the seagulls shouted back that they… Read More »Bears on the Beach part 2

I don’t know what’s wrong with those naughty seagulls at the moment, maybe it’s the horrible February weather. They are just so grumpy and rude to me Scampi, Harry and Netty. I got in touch with Nice Bear so that he could encourage the Seagulls to be nice. Nice Bear insisted on bringing Naughty Bear. When they both arrived the seagulls asked “What are you doing here? You’re not welcome.”… Read More »Naughty Seagulls!
