My husband makes our own marmalade . He has just finished a batch and there are eight jars in the fridge as I speak.
We would never expect Paddington to leave London , but perhaps he will visit one day to taste it...........

Mmmmm, is that a marmalade sandwich I see?

What a nonsense event. I hope the drunken pair have to pay for his reinstatement. Ours in Reading is quite a jolly fellow sitting happily on his bench.

So where did he disappear to in the first place then?
Did he pay a visit to family in Peru? 🐻 🇵🇪

Two drunken airmen thought it would be a hoot to pull him from his seat and run of with him

Paddington bear will be returned to his bench in Newbury on WEDNESDAY 9th April 2025.

Give the kids (and grand kids) a big treat and take them there by train,if you can,then a short walk to Northbrook Street.
