I was surprised to see when I uploaded this, that this video is not allowed to be shown in Germany. Things might have been different if Grumpy was a genuine Steiff bear I suppose ……. honestly, he always lets me down ….
[Very impressed with the efficiency of YouTube. A soon as this vid arrived over at their place, I had a warning about copyright, they’d linked to Lou Reed and iTunes ….. and told me to do nothing. I think they meant ‘do nothing’ about the copyright transgression or I suppose they could have just been saying ‘DO NOTHING!!’ – tee hee – oh, and sorry about the dreadful sound quality – I couldn’t find the correct cables for hard wiring – the built in microphone on the iMac is rubbish]

remarkababbel vid DP …. lovely camera work TG
Loving the cement mixer in the park such an extraordinary piece of modern art
[the match will get splinters if he carries on like that]
A match with splinters! – that’s very clever – are you feeling OK?
It took ages to decide where to film on location ….. didn’t want to spend too much money on travelling …
Eeeek – I’m still graffiteeeeeed ……
you’d better get the white spirit out!!!
they are such naughty monkeys …. !!!
70’s – I’m thinking of giving up the day job – actually I was thinking of giving that up anyway.
Grumpy wouldn’t approve …….
Still… scratching and getting splinters is probably less of a disaster than if he was scratching his head.
You’re right ……. kerbooooooooom!!!!!!!
That’s made ME want to give up my day job! Great vid
Thanks …. but SHUSSSSSH …… I’m thinking of anagrams of ‘festoon’ ………
Excellent cinametography, Lo,TG. The plotting is very moving and thought-provoking. The editing has a natural rhythm to all the asso r t e d s h o t s a n d snzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzz – WAH? oh! cinematography of course – zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Ahhh – that was a nice little nap. Why am I thinking of koi swimming in red wine? And giant parsley plants.
Giant parsley plants? [checks] yes. at 2:41.
Grumpy Ted should have been given a credit for his magnificent direction.
Grumpy Ted should be put out of his misery ….. as should I ……. *reliving the longest ‘Once Upon a Pun’ in history* …………… urggggggg!
i see Grumpy Ted still hasn’t gotten through to you on the basic maths….
He keeps trying ……. silly sod ……
Those fish are going to get v.fat if you keep feeding them so much.
Loverly vid though…can you get George Clooney to star in the next one?
That was George Clooney ….. perhaps you need new glasses?
I believe Knut owns all the bear-related YouTube rights in Germany.

There is no way Grumpy can compete with cuddly polar bears although he is bi-polar of course …….
I doooooooo wish my blog would get a spring clean …….
But is autumn. Just sayin’, in an antipodean way.
Surely young Archie ….. the antipodean way is springlike …..
I think you’re overfeeding those fish
I’ve just started feeding them dead flies now ….. if you’ve got any, please send them over ……
I really must protest on behalf of Grumpy Ted. Have you not considered the excruciating pain he must be in when you tote him about, dangling him from the one arm like that?
For the sake of all that’s fluffy and comforting… be kinder to him will you? If not… I will report you to PETT (People for the Ethical Treatment of Teddies.)
Oh, and would you mind letting Ted know that it’s been a rainy summer here so it might be best if he rewards my efforts with some nice pumps (or some pointy-toed mary-janes) rather than flip flops? I’m sure he’ll want to send me something…
His other arm fell off about 30 years ago and was bodged back on by an amateur Teddy surgeon ….. oh yes, that’s right – it was me. Anyhoo it looks as though it might fall off again so he has to enjoy his trips now hanging by the other arm. [I'll save his blushes and not mention his burnt bottom, one eye and earwax problem]
Are you allowed to show a bear behind on the interweb?
Hello Oranjball!!! …. and yes, if you keep your eyes closed ……..
…at least you’ve got someone else to blame for breaking LoTG’s clay pots in the garden. (Is this really what I have to look forward to in my up and coming years?)
I suspect that in a few years time this will look quite racy ……
…to ‘me’ or people in general?
To me …….. probably
…how many…oh, since you’re metric it could be in deciyears…or milliyears. Why they never formalized time when they had the time…figures it was the French.
The French can be blamed for most everything …… in my humble opinion ….. tee hee
That’s a pretty big opinion…oh, right. You ‘are’ British by birth. I keep forgetting sometimes.
It’s the only opinion I’ve got so it has to be big …… something in my life has to be …..
