I glimpsed Tuesday evening’s The Drum from my garden through the window and rushed in to see what I thought was Steve Cannane in drag. Nope..just Julia Baird doing a very plausable S C impersonation.
I agree jane, those pandas are just too perfect.
Actually, jane, I don’t think non-stuffed pandas move much more than that anyway.
They are very perfect, Wilful. And so very clean.
DI(nr), they might move if we poked them. If they’re not stuffed toys.
