The George Bear alias GEORGE

You will be pleased to learn that I have been in the company of the Forresters who had a great time travelling round the South Island in accomodation like the George and meeting locals who have much to teach hospitality in Scotland, They say that they have had a ball ..same as they had three years ago when they travelled from Christchurch North and then over to the North Island.

Incidentally I have been in good company of the BEAR TYPE! I met a horific pepermint bear who joined the FORRESTERS on their last trip having been bought in my home area (purpose of being acquired was to provide an ID object in the rear window of their hire car) The pepermint bear has technically been round the WORLD and I have gone half way!

My home in Gartocharn is very pleasant ,companions include STEIFF FAMILY COLLECTOR ITEMS so be happy in the knowledge that I have found an excellent home in SCOTLAND

THe family wish me to convey their regards and to wish all at the GEORGE A MERRY XMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR

Bear c/o Forrester,
