Oh! The weather is getting sooooo chilly! I am glad that I have a furry skin to keep me warm! But, I still get quite cold! I hope that I don't get a blue nose! That would be sooo funny, for me to be a brown bear with a blue nose! But, I did hear a whisper from the "Vogue a la teddy mag" (it is the bear version of Vogue magazine. It is such a glossy magazine! It is " tres chic"! You even have to put on a tuxedo and top hat or a formal ball gown just to read the magazine! And do not even attempt to eat a hamburger with beetroot in it whilst reading the magazine! It is certainly not " the done" thing to do! It is completely frowned upon by all etiquette experts! ) that blue noses on teddy bears may be the next trend to arise. You just never know what will be the next trendy fashion style! Perhaps one day it will be considered stylish to walk around with cartons of long life milk on your head?! Oh! They would be a bit heavy though! And... it could cause a few headaches and migraines! But, I suppose the Kiosk Helpers would be quite happy because their sales of long life milk cartons would sky rocket! Hmmm... I am not really sure if that craze of wearing cartons with cows on them will really take off!      

  Anyway, do you like to hear the pitter patter of raindrops on the  roof of your home at nighttime? I do ! I think that it sounds quite melodious! It is quite a tuneful sound! I like to bop, jive ( I did accidentally write dive! I suppose that could suit the water theme! )  and waltz to the sound! And... I have the bestest ever rainbow coloured umbrella to put up if it rains through the day! It has  every colour that you could imagine in it! It really brightens up my day when I look at it! But, it is funny how sometimes it gets blown inside out in rainy and windy weather, then all that covers my head are umbrella spokes! I get soooo wet when that happens! But I just start singing in the rain, jump in puddles, and head very quickly back to the cosy destination of my home at the Kiosk! Oh, I must hastily say that I never ever, ever never, bring in muddy footsteps to the floor of the Kiosk! No, never! I would not even think of doing that! I have special yellow gumboots with purple polka dots on that I wear when outdoors. I don't wear them when I am in the Kiosk. So...if you happen to see some yellow gumboots outside the front of Kiosk when coming to the Kiosk, please be aware that they are mine ! Please don't steal them! They are only suited for teddy paw feet anyway! 

    Well, I had better be off now. I feel like getting into my cosy armchair and having a read of a good book! 

    Until next time,

         Keep warm! Enjoy looking through the windows at the rain! Never ever read "Vogue A la teddy mag"  when eating spaghetti!
