It's true! Britain has no bears so we like any refrence to them to be removed from our books ensuring we never have to think about them.


Strangely enough, I read about a bear that was lurking around at Paddington Station.


But that's a Peruvian bear.


Let me guess, he claims he's just a tourist, but had two 400lb suitcases.


The swallow may fly south with the sun, or the house martin or the plover seek warmer hot lands in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land.


There were also rumours of a pooh bear in East Sussex.


There’s a version of a book on birds that doesn’t have the gannet in it.

(Monty Python reference)


And a book on trees that doesn't have the larch in it.
