Teddy bears...

[Mags]

Did you have a teddy when you were a child ....... and if so, have you still got it?

I was listening to the radio in the early hours of this morning and it appears that 10% of men take a teddy to bed with them when are away from home! I couldn't imagine my OH doing that!!

I never had a teddy when i was a child

.
When my daughter got married and left home, she gave me a lovely surprise on my 1st Mother's Day after............... a lovely white fluffy teddy bear! I really treasure that bear and it sits beside me on the bedside table at night!

I read that article about more men than women taking a teddy to bed - amazing. Actually I don't think I believe it.

I had 2 teddies, a giant one and a normal one. They didn't survive but Bonzo the dog did

He's a bit threadbare now, but you can still get the odd sqeak/woof out of him if you know the magic spot to press. He's not looking so bad for over half a century old

Aww he's lovely DM ........ I bet he holds lots of good memories too

I really can't believe many men will take a teddy to bed either
Saying that though, the programme last night was a phone in and one man actually admitted it (I suppose it made good listening!). Also one of the male presenters said that he sometimes did..

I still have my first teddy when I was born back in 1967 and my first ever dolly, I will look it out and take a picture of it x

I still have my big, yellow teddy. It sits on Dominik's bed now completely ignored by him in favour of rabbits, elephants, dogs and really anything else

I also have a threadbare dog a bit like DMs but it doesn't make a sound and it's pale blue . . . Sebastian will have that one once I've sown his nearly-falling-off head back on

The most of my teddies were lost in transit when we moved to Germany. I still have my old golliwog and a few other smaller teddies including a large orange teddie. I have collected a few since then though my fave is a dog pyjama case it is soooo soft and cuddly and its a real comfort to snuggle into when i am down... bit sad really when I am about to turn 37 lol

I still have my teddy bear his name is Fred bear and I have had him since I was 5....
