Bear Fair Norwich

The Bear Fair in Norwich, organised by The Bear Shop was a great day out.

It was really well attended with lots of collectors turning up and enjoying their day, and for those who couldn't make it on the day, The Bear Shop in both Colchester and Norwich are honouring the special discount vouchers for purchases in the shops.

Robert had arranged a buffet lunch for all the exhibitors and he and his staff had put an enormous amount of work in to organising the show and ensuring that it was run smoothly and professionally. I took my old bear Alice to be identified and found out that she is German from the early nineteen hundreds, possibly 1920. So she is a very old girl indeed!

It was great to meet so many friendly and talented Bear Artists and I took pictures of some of the stalls.

Norwich Bear fair

All these pictures of bears and my little chihuahua is feeling left out, so here is my darling little Prinny! His tongue is usually hanging out like that, he has no teeth that side to hold it in place.
He still manages to eat very well and has no trouble trying to nip the postman
or any one else that gets too near to me :-)



Just a few of the bears I will taking to the show.

Tomorrow is the Norwich Bear Fair , organised by The Bear Shop.
It will be held in Blackfriars Hall which is next to St. Andrew's hall in Norwich.
11am - 4pm
Its a beautiful venue with a great coffee shop/snack bar with vegetarian options.
All your favourites will be there including Admiral Bear Supplies,
Laurie Lou Bears, my own Poppy Bears,
Charlie Bears, Steiff and many others.
Free gifts and money saving vouchers , plus tombola and a chance to win a bear.
So a great day out, whether you collect Bears or want to
stock up on your bear making materials.

I hope to see you there!
