BEN’S BLOG: ‘Pam, BUY, BUY, BUY, buy me a million quid’s worth of marmalade this instant!’

[dropcap]I[/dropcap]’m delighted to say, Blog, that there are only 7 days now, till a film comes out, about one of my very good, and local friends; Paddington Bear writes BEN KEITH (right). Often, when walking through Paddington Rec, you can see PB, playing tennis, on the carpet courts; in order to preserve his feet. And he, obviously, ALWAYS offers me a marmalade sandwich, from under his hat; something I never decline, especially if it’s a particularly crusty one.

What interests me though, is that; when the film ‘Notting Hill’ came out, recounting the life of a daft English Hooray, it made the prices of property in the area fly. Well, Paddington’s prices have gone up more than enough already, so what other market could this effect..? Let’s think about this burning question a little longer, shall we, Blog?

As an aside though, what is this silliness about Paddington Bear being a PG and not a U? It’s because he locks himself in the fridge at one point – and children might copy him…..for Christ’s sakes….really? I mean, if there was a particularly tasty looking trifle, or leftover Ev Garbacz lemon-cake, in the fridge, I can understand that, I, may be encouraged to lock myself in the fridge – but I REALLY don’t see any rational and reasonable child taking such action.

Yes, Blog, I’ve got it…BUY, BUY, BUY….it’s Marmalade… PAM, CALL TESCO’S AND BUY ME A MILLION QUID’S WORTH OF MARMALADE THIS INSTANT!!!

Why does Andy ‘Oedipus’ Murray, like making such dry remarks, about his very game mother’s dancing?

Your mum’s supported you all the way, so rather than making weird, leering looks at her, when you’re playing tennis,

Andy, you might like, for once, to be a bit less of a miserable git, and return the favour!

Over and out, B x
