What a tune!

Meet Gordi.

Gordi's interests are t cooking, cleaning, singing and having friends pop in.

Gordi enjoys it when there are not people being critical of his missed keys and hits that open into another unknown song.  Pity Gordi is tone deaf.

As the people in the know say being tone deaf may have something to do with High Functions Autism disorder [Asbergers].  Having said that it explains a lot about Gordi's behaviour patterns as well as the problems with spelling, reading writing and just plain not hearing you as you speak!

An annual Teddy Bear Picnic for research

The Teddy Bear's Picnic in Lister Park is an annual event for the families in Bradford.

In the UK's Bradford Lister Park parents and would be parents attend the annual Teddy Bears Picnic.  Why?  The Parents and the children give a yearly sample of blood

 towards the research behind finding out why illness blights so many lives within Bradgford.  Bradford having some of the most deprivves communities within the UK.  

Between 1996 and 2003, the number of children dying in Bradford before they reached their first birthday was almost double the average for England and Wales. This corresponds with levels of childhood illness which are higher than usual, along with much higher rates of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, obesity, asthma and eczema in the city's population as a whole.

The research project, known as Born in Bradford, is looking at every aspect of a child's development to try to get an idea of how factors like environment, education, diet, ethnicity and genes interact together to affect our health. Parents give blood and saliva samples, babies are measured and weighed and their progress will be tracked across the years.


Now once a year everyone participating attends a Teddy Bears Picnic.  What a great use of the Day.

Is 55 PB the first teddy bear ?

On July 26th 2011 BBC News Frances Cronin  asks  "Is the 55pb the first Teddy bear? 

• A replica of 55 PB teddy bear is on display at the Steiff museum
• But its status as first bear is hotly disputed
• The name Teddy Bear comes from former US President Theodore Roosevelt.
• On a bear-hunting trip in Mississippi in 1902 Roosevelt was offered a stunned, lassoed bear to shoot but he refused
• This was depicted in a cartoon in the Washington Post, which inspired Russian immigrant toy maker Morris Michtom
• He created a bear to put in his toy shop window in Brooklyn and called it Teddy's Bear
• Richard Steiff registered his design in July 1903. There is evidence of a sample being sent over to the US late 1902/early 1903 but it would have taken a while to design and make
• The US bear appeared towards the end of November 1902 so the timing is very tight, possibly even simultaneous

Tea cup biscuits

Since teddies need a 'cuppa of tea' for refreshment and they do not want to get wet these little cups were made for all. The Guides actually had their drink bottles too.

Teddy in car biscuits

The ingredients where simple, the Guides had fun. The older Guides enjoyed themselves emensilly as they 'showed' the younger ones how to create and orgastrae the teddies into their cars. Somehow I think there were less actual cars than planned.
