We were completely and utterly gone when we arrived back here from the fantastic skyscraper festival in Frankfurt last night!!! We got up at 3 am on Saturday morning and by midday we had met Teddy De Baer. Nobody had told us that Teddy was a girl!!!!!!!!!! And, you've probably guessed this already, but Rocco is in love! Being the more mature, I let him believe that she was interested in him, when really she only had eyes for me. But I played it cool. However, I know she was looking at me when I abseiled from various towers, bungee jumped without screaming and did a 200 m zipwire off the second highest tower without twitching. She daintily fed me little morsels when we were having lunch 30 m up in the air suspended from a crane, and I'm sure you can also tell that we are far closer from the enclosed photo, although I made sure that Rocco didn't feel too left out. However, at that particular moment he was engrossed in the strawberries, being the pig that he is.
Teddy and I have exchanged addresses and I'm sure I'm going to see her again. I wished you could have met her. She smelt lovely and had the most interesting and varied personality. We discussed architecture, relationships, and many other things, but the best thing was that we shared a tremendous sense of fun. She went on nearly as many attractions as I did and on some we went together. We raced each other up a tower on a bicycle ( I let her win) and we did a bungee jump where we were tied into a sack together, winched up about 50 m and then dropped without warning. My assured presence meant that she hardly squealed! By the time the amazing fireworks started we were really very close and she dropped her head onto my shoulder to get an easier view.
Anyway, it's nearly dinner time now and I want to send off a quick email to her before I eat. I'm sure she's been waiting for it all day.
With much love,
Chelmer

Hello,
I hope you don't mind me writing to you but something quite difficult happened at the weekend, and I need to fill you in on one or two details so that you can deal with the matter sensitively when Chelmer and Rocco return to you on Thursday. Chelmer fell in love with a lady bear called Teddy De Baer. Although he didn't admit it, it was quite obvious. The thing about Teddy is that she is a bit of a heart breaker and not to be trusted. She has been officially married four times already (she's barely 29), and I have my suspicions that she didn't always get divorced before she married the next man. She is what is commonly known as a gold digger - and so far has fared very well on this. You have a better relationship with Chelmer than I do. Please, in the interest of his future happiness, make him see the error of his daily growing conviction that Teddy loves him.
With best wishes,
Birgit
