Admittedly, after 35 years Robin decided to retire, and take a little time off from bears, by concentrating on her own Organic Olive Grove – Oakdale (named after its exceptional 11 English Oak Trees), and has been using her magical artistic talents to sculpt Frogs from the clay, whilst also becoming an author by publishing – Country Delights.

One of the products I wanted was not in stock so the 'head bear' called me and we sorted an alternative for no extra cost.

Lovely curly haired teddy bear bought for my grandson's first birthday. Bear was slightly smaller than expected but that was my fault for not reading the description properly! Excellent quality as I would expect from a Merrythought bear
