Lots of Reasons to Celebrate!

We're returning (post wise) from the heat of Egypt to a snowy and frozen Norfolk to share 2 happy events with you.

The first is the news that this is our 500th post! Who'd have thought, when we tentatively published our first post some 3 years ago, that our blog would survive long enough to reach 500 posts. Not only is it still going, but we feel it still has a lot to offer, and we still enjoy writing it - so long may it continue. We will be getting the festive season off to a jolly start with a celebratory party tonight.

We're also looking forward to the arrival of 3 Bears Unlimited branches over the next couple of days and celebrating Christmas en masse. Our tree went up last weekend and Randolph has been diligently keeping him well watered with the cold contents of his tummy.


When the snow arrived in Norfolk last week, we began to feel really Christmassy. We have been out in the snow most days making snow bears and snow angels - this is the reason we're all flat on our backs in the next photo, not because we've had a drop too much!


During this cold snap we've also been remembering to keep the bird feeders topped up with food, as it is a very difficult time for our feathered friends, and we want them to have a happy, not a hungry, Christmas.


Marmaduke is a special friend of our local birds as he is out every day to check that supplies don't run too low. We hope you are doing the same.

We hope all our readers have a very happy and peaceful Christmas and will raise a glass, not only to celebrate Christmas, but also our 500th post.

Lots of love, all at Bears Unlimited xxx
