I was so sorry to hear of Michael Bond's death today. I loved reading all the Paddington books as a child. Michael Bond brought Paddington to life - creating a larger than life character. I loved the books so much I actually believed (as a child) that Paddington was real - so much so I hoped I would bump into him at London's Edgware Road market on my first visit to London aged 8.

Beachcombing
It was lovely being back down at Coney Island yesterday morning with Maddie, Rhonda, Cathryn and Moira.
After the obligatory muffins and coffee, catching up and chatting, we considered working titles.
Then for further inspiration we strolled on the beach in the sunshine, discovering what the tide had brought in.
The dogs joined in the foraging adventure.
The prize has to go to Moira for finding an old lobster pot, though Coley was determined to take part, finding a few sticks, a Mr Sheen canister and an old golf ball.
There's never a dull moment in Coney :-)
