Someone RAn over Harry's Teddy

[pip]

We arrived home to find a package form OZ addressed to little Harry. It was sent by Mrs Pips dads Aussie cousin so we were excited to see what it was. We opened the package and were shocked to find what looked like roadkill. It looks a bit like someone went to the Teddy Bear factory and forgot the stuffing.

Turns out thes are the new big thing Down Under and they're bloody expensive (around 50 euro) for a squashed bear. They're made from sheep or something . Bloody strange but Mad better get a few in the shop just in case

I'd put that away in the loft, in the packaging, and wait for the Antiques Roadshow 2052 to come around.

Poor little Harry will be terrified if he sees that.

I thought it was a hot water bottle cover.

Its called a Flatout and it seems all the A listers are getting them for their offspring

Shouldn't it be re-named as a Flatmate?? Scary!

:lol: I thought it was a hot water bottle cover.

I thought it was a hot water bottle, or maybe a pyjama case? It just doesn't look right!

Aussies are pretty strange. Maybe its traditional for babies to play with whatever the jeep just squashed .

One of my cuzzins in Alabama found one of those on the side of the road and emailed me, "Theys good eatin' on one o' them."

Never seen one Pip. And I see a lot of babies. How big is it ? Is it just skin on the back or .more fluff
?

All my girls.had a sheepskin to sleep on and one for the pram as babies. My boss sent to New Zealand for one for Truly and she is 25 , ,that fitted her cot. Very extravagant. It keeps the baby so cool in sweltering summers and cosy in winter.

Bit those were short haired and no ribbons and no button nose or eyes... watch harry doesn't chew those off.

I'm going to post a picture of it on another forum I go to, and see what the reaction will be.

It's creepy.

[Bouncy Castle]

Innit

[ShadowNinjaCat]

Especially since I keep seeing the nose as a frowning open mouth and the ears have sort of merged in to one long head thing .So to me,it looks like a blue marshmallow thing crying out in pain.Oh goodness the nightmares to be had.

[Quatermass]

They're all the rage down here?!

My reaction:

[Catch-up]

Well, that's different. Doesn't look very cuddly. And, Del makes a good point, doesn't look baby safe.
