Anyone who’s anyone is talking about the crazy street fair on Saturday, organised and run, as you know, by Eye On Moseley with help from “the team” at the Green Party. The event was a huge success…apart from starting an hour and a quarter late…letting off the fireworks too early and cocking up the unveiling of the bear. Once underway though it went splendidly, with what some described as a “carnival” atmosphere. Little did they know that the dancing bear in the window was a real bear! Yes, having tired of dressing up in childish costumes, we imported a real life angry Russian bear and chained it to the window frame and spent the whole day cattle prodding it to make it “dance”. One child was so impressed that she drew the following picture.
Obviously it’s a rubbish representation of the actual event, but she was only three, so we told her it was “alright”. So many thanks for your support (waving etc..), and thanks to the droves of people who logged on to the site to look at the same stories that have been there for a month or so. We’re proud of you Moseley, you keep the fun alive and the King’s Heathens at bay. As for anyone who thought it was too loud (all three of you)the bear has a message for you…”The next time I see any of you, I’m going to shit up your nose.”
