Well-travelled teddy bears

(Updated 5 October 2012 - new photos added.)

Last year a friend kindly gave me a Florence Nightingale teddy bear from the Great British Teddy Bear Company (http://www.gbteddybear.com/) as a gift. Since then a number of other bears from their collection have also been gifted and travelled 'Down Under'. They are a family-run company, ship anywhere in the world and provide excellent service. There are lots more quirky bears where these came from!

The 2012 Victorian Cancer Council fundraising bear is also featured at the end of this posting.

Carl Gustav, a handsome Royal Navy Bear, enjoys a get-together with some of his colleagues who also serve the community.

Algernon, a City Gent, had a spiffing time at the London Olympics and is seen below hobnobbing with royalty.

Elmore (the farmer/gardener bear) is the official 2012 fundraising bear for the Victorian Cancer Council. He is also available in a smaller version. He loves to spend time with his best friend Gracie.
