I would like to apologise to Gadget (top of page 43). I obviously misread what had been said. We all make mistakes sometimes don't we.

A change of angle on the subject - does anyone know if this request has had a possible "record" viewers?

Annie.

Hi Annie

No  it hasn't had a record number of views. I don't know what the record is but my Carver Ramblings 21 page thread on the Bedfordshire board has been viewed 19963 times.

That's a great total but please don't let's make this into a competition. I for one don't take any notice of 'views' - it's the content that counts.

Reluctant as I am to put another penny in the merry-go-round and extend the pages further  ;)

My thoughts haven't really changed from the start, including the possibility of bear being a shadow of it's former self.

Comparing photos together as they've lately been put up, I have to say general proportion is so similar, not taking into account features that may have been replaced and repositioned.  Ears could have become detached and reattached, pads have been replaced by sturdy scraps of fabric and not very asthetically but perhaps sympathetically to cover worn areas also eyes often replaced by shanked buttons and can be easily lost. He seems to have lost a bit of stuffing or knocked out of him and fur is a bit different looking  :-\ could be affected by body oils and flattened pile facing different way like bed hair  :D or bear'd hair  ::)

I was in no way trying to instigate a competition in any shape/form/manner.

Again, take time to read what I've written with no jibes intended,
