Well-ll-ll, he's b-a-c-k… my best old mate, Ted Bear Esq. (the Esq. bit was his idea – he thinks he's quite grand when that is added to his official title). After sharing more than 65 years of Life with him, I don't need anything to raise him in my estimation, or make him any more loveable – he's my Ted – what more can I say?It was all meant to start and end with a simple photographic record - Ted Bear Esq. – his photo album - but no, that wasn't enough. He went on to challenge my wordsmith ability to create written cameos about the photos of him and his best mates, posturing all over the house! Well-ll-ll… this book is the result. Resistance was useless, he just moped and looked pleadingly and heart-breakingly at me all day, every day… until I could stand no more, and weakened (as he always knew I would).Sit yourself down, get comfy and prepare to enjoy Ted Bear's particularly quirky sense of humour.
