If you can't beat them...

Mr Mouse

A real desperation blip.  I "exposed no electrons" at all during daylight, so I was roaming round the house thinking of what I might blip.  Then I spotted this young old man, recently rediscovered when we were doing some "sorting".  I had to change him from young to old as he must be a minimum of 40 to 45 years old.

My Mum was an Occupational Therapist back in the days when the stress was on the occupation part.   Being incredibly able at any craft she turned her hand to she spend most of her working time helping long term patients keep occupied.

Back then we were as a village in the process of raising money to buy our own building for a Scout Headquarters.  Being an ex scout and cub leader she turned her hand to soft toy making and sold as many as she could turn out.

I think this gentleman would be one of the last she made and as I remember it was to her own pattern as well.
