    Some absolute West Brits in this country who would definitely buy it.

    Also, I love how the illustrations show a bandaged thumb. Talk about whitewashing the horrific mental and physical injuries faced by soldiers in the British army

      It’s a Teddy, a Teddy in a military uniform…. what ya want a graphic image, a war photo and still from Battlefield V or COD Black Ops.

      It’s a Teddy.

    Support for veterans of the UK Armed Mouse Forces is scandalously poor, in fairness. The media have been ignoring the Gruffalo Wars for too long now.

    I don’t think that a ‘Help for Heroes’ calendar is any more (or less) Anglophilic than an Arsenal one.

      Indeed.
      Some of those heroes are soldiers staffing hundreds of vaccination centres in the UK providing jabs for the many Irish people who live there.
      Then there’s the RAF Rescue helicopter pilots who risk their lives to rescue Irish people in distress.
      Or those who provide air cover over the skies of Ireland after a request from the government here.
      I could go on…

        More likely bombing shepherds in Yemen. Someone should tell them the second world war is over. Then again all those Saudi dollars might plug a Brexit gap or two.

          At least they don’t have to refuel at Shannon while stocking up on giant Toblerones …

            Yes there is that……

            I suppose?

            A nice gentle stroll around the garden might be in order? Or maybe less gin?

            But early even for me Millie.
            Another couple of hours though and it’ll be Gin ‘o’clock.
            I have found a bottle of that Gunpowder nonsense loitering in a nook of the wine cellar the someone must have given me as a Christmas present so Lady Charger and I will horse into that soon.
            Marvellous™ ( in expectation )

      I’d rather think about giant Toblerones and gin if that’s okay with you.
      Got a nice little buzz on the go today.
