Rupert the Bear is 90 this Monday!

"THE CARE BEAR CARE HOME FOR CLAPPED OUT T.V. TOYS"
In the fifties they were brand new entertainment,
In the sixties they were still quite up to date,
Now the 'Watch with mother' era's in retirement
And its stars have started to deteriorate.
But they'd always paid their annual subs to Equity,
There were legacies from long gone girls and boys,
So they're housed in unimaginable luxury,
At the Care Bear ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ for clapped out T.V. toys.
Rag, Tag and Bobtail, Mary, Mungo and Midge
Are having zimmer races around the romper room,
Peregrine the Penguin's fast asleep in the fridge
And Muffin the Mule's being pampered by his groom.
Bill and Ben the Flowerpot men are dandy,
Though the Little Weed's on prescription Flobadob,
The Woodentops and dear old Andy Pandy
Are playing five card stud with Noggin the Nog.
Torchy the Battery Boy is feeling a bit run down,
But Pinky and Perky have tottered off to the pub
For a pint or three of traditional mild and brown
With Pugh, Pugh, Barney Mcgrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grub.

Hi, I'm Mark Cummings. Every day I explore all things Gloucestershire on my breakfast show. The stories, the people, the history, the news - the complete package of what makes the county tick. On the show, and on this blog, we share our knowledge, stories and experiences to celebrate life in Gloucestershire.
