ARE YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS, DEAN? IS EDMUND RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS, ERNI?

Things have never been the same in Sigean -- especially rue de la Vieille Fontaine -- since Dean spent a few days here last month; Apart from (many) other things, all sorts of Geocachers, are invading my Impasse, and terrorising the bird house.

Look what I found at the end of the road this morning:

If Dean's NOT responsible for this, then I guess it must be one of Edmund's friends who hasn't recovered fro yesterday's Bastille Day celebrations.

(No Katerina, it's neither Dean nor Erni in disgusise, I can assure you)

Any advice on what i should do with this rather bedraggled creature will be greatfully appreciated;

Thank you.

It's said that George Harrison drove from London to the South of France in the 60's chanting something that the Maharishi had taught him --  FOR THE WHOLE JOURNEY WITHOUT STOPPING CHANTING AT ALL.

It must have been difficult when he stopped for petrol and had to interject "60 litres of super grade, please, and check the oil into his mantara.

LUJAH, George!

Come on Erni...loosen up. Edmund says it's impossible to be both anti-sport (especially football) and anti-paradise. Angles have wings in case they ever get to play in goal, says Edmund.

Too bad, I was looking forward to a funny wastepaper basket.  The elephant one is now boring and politically incorrect.   Hippo, let me think, yes that could be fun.

Holiday Val?  He lives in paradise, why would he need to go on holiday?

Poor Teddy.

His Big Foot...he may have given it to Val?

That could be one small step for Val...one...

Nooo not Paddington! Have mercy, he must have lost his tag that reads please look after this bear.

When I went out at 07.20 this morning to buy bread and a newspaper, I was saddened to see that yesterday's YETI (for that was what it was) had GONE!

Instead, lurking in the same spot was this wee beastie:

"Where have you been, Edmund? I thiought you were lost -- I haven't seen you for a few weeks".

"I went into hiding, because I knew that Dean was coming."

"Why did you want to hide from Dean -- he's a good guy?".

"I thought he might want to cut off my legs and feet to make wastepaper baskets out of -- and then he'd probably use the rest of me for his Mail Art."

"No, he wouldn't do that, and even if he did you could always kick him in his Glue Stick."

"Are we going on holiday now, Val?"

"Let me think about it..."

It's Paddington alright, but he has been out on the town again.  Things are only going to get worst.

My advice would be to take him apart, cut him into pieces, glue the pieces onto some cardboard, and send him out.  You should be able to get at least 10 good Mail Art pieces out of him.

Can I have one of the legs and foot to make a wastepaper basket?
