Family Reunion

Now what were these two up to? They said they'd found their Daddy. I told them it wasn't me.

Well, would you believe it! It's my cousin Ferdinand Magellan Cottontail. He'd been inspired by my exploring adventures and decided to do a spot of travelling himself.

Discovering Stanley

I found out who Stanley is! He's not one who, he's a whole bloomin' football team of 'em! I scrounged some souvenirs to give to my next foster family but I'm keeping this scarf for myself.

Do you like it?

Moby arrived

We got a new travelling companion. Moby wanted to join me and Monkey on our travels. He used to live with a Mad One called Gypt.


Rosie says the name is Mad On Egypt not Mad One Gypt. Well, how's a mere wabbit supposed to know these things? Rosie says I'm not a mere wabbit. She says I'm a very well connected wabbit. I wondered what I was connected to.

A day out in Burnley

This Rosie doesn't half get around! Another day and we were off to Burnley. I think we were going shopping. Rosie likes shopping. I don't mind shopping but it's hungry work for wabbits. Not to mention tiring when you've only got little legs.

Hello Mrs. Mind if I sit next to you?

This will do for my dinner.

That filled a little corner.

Rosie looked worried but it wasn't slippery, there wasn't any water.

Can I see Knotty End from here?

If only I knew which direction to look.

Morecambe's Stone Jetty

That's pretty

It was a bit chilly out there.

I'd never seen an egg that size before.

Which one of you pigeons laid that big egg?

Hopscotch anybody?

Morecambe in Morecambe

I think Rosie likes confusing wabbits. She told me we were going to Morecambe and then when we got there she said we were going to see Morecambe!

Then she told me this chap is called Eric Morecambe. So I understood - I think.

Was he doing Irish dancing?

Oi! Watch out you don't kick me!

Hiya Rosie! I got a new friend!

Dillon Phones home!

I decided to phone Monkey to tell him what he was missing.

I spotted a ski slope in the distance. Without snow!

I talked Rosie into taking us skiing.

The countryside is very big round here.

I lost Rosie but these ladies didn't seem to know where she was.

Downham

Now here's a place where a wabbit could go fishing.

Rosie's church gave this seat to the village.

So Myrra decided to sit on a log.

We did some more exploring.

Dozy ducks!

Manicure

Rosie went to have her nails done.

I wasn't sure that was really my colour.

Gone fishing?

I thought Rosie said we were going fishing but she meant microfiche. I couldn't work this machine.

I couldn't work this one either.

Ah a computer.Now that was better. I knew where I was with that.

This was a family history research centre where Rosie used to work. I wonder if they have Cottontail records?

It looked like snow again.

I don't think that notice applied to wabbits.

a spot of refeshment

Hungry wabbits appreciate a nice pub lunch.

Lovely cosy fire. I had to be careful not to burn my tail!

York

We arrived at last. Rosie says they make chocolate in York.

I wanted to go on the river.

That didn't look like a chocolate shop!

This was Jorvik so we dressed up and pretended to be vikings.

On the train

We took some snacks for the journey
Are we nearly there yet?

This is the biggest wabbit hole I've ever seen!
Are we nearly there yet?

Are we nearly there yet?

Is this where that one-eyed teddy bear lives?

Are we nearly there yet?

I found my new station in life

Setting off on a train to York

What a lot of steps to climb!

I read my paper while we waited for the train.

Weyhey! It snowed!

Not a patch on Bayern though is it?
