Chelmer & Rocco's BIG Adventure

As the reports of Eddie's canal boating holiday draw to an end, the latest excitement in the Bears Unlimited community is Chelmer and Rocco's spur of the moment holiday departure. 'Carpe Diem' is one of the Bears Unlimited mottos and so when the chance of a holiday came their way, Chelmer & Rocco had their bags packed before you could say Bear Robinson.

Since Chelmer is a bit of an adventure bear and adrenalin junkie, no ordinary holiday sunbathing by a pool would do for him. He and Rocco have left with Chelmer's drumming buddy, Wade and Rocco's guitar teacher, Birigit, for a multi-activity week. With a combination like that an interesting week is guaranteed and we do happen to know that they left with their Bearports (bear passports).

They've been gone less than 24 hours but their excitement is so great that we bears have already heard from them twice. They've promised to send us daily email postcards and we'll publish the first one shortly, but first a poem from Chelmer we received earlier. We never knew he had such talent as a poet, but we are all familiar with his droll sense of humour which is very evident in the following:

Hello Mudder, hello Fudder

Here we are at Camp Griem-Leada
and it's very entertaining
they say we'll have some fun when it stops raining.

Take us home, oh Mudder, Fadder
Take us home, we hate Griem-Leada
Don't leave us out on their allotment
where we will be all too despondent

No, I don't want to scare ya
but Rocco might have malaria
I remember your great dinnas
here we get nothing but spinach

Take us home, we promise we will not make a noise
or mess the house with other bears
oh please don't make us stay
we've been here one whole day!

Dearest Fudder, darling Mudder
how's our precious littles brudda
Let us come home, if you miss us
I would even let you kiss us.

Wait a minute, it's stopped raining
bears are planting, bears are gliding
playing badders, yes that's better,
Mudder, Fudder, kindly disregard this letter.

What a wind up merchant Chelmer is!!

Lots of love the Bears Unlimited gang xxx
