313. T is for Thor



"I quite like it. I said I was very popular with the mortals."

At least someone knows how to take a plushie version of himself.

"...We're not cutting my hair that short, are we?"

[Tam I am]

He'd be packing the plushie around with a big grin on his face.

Sorry for not posting in the past few days - bit of a mental low. Still not great, but getting somewhere I hope!

314. U is for Unusual Sight



A chimney sweep, that is. Well, it's a not as commonly seen sight, now. This is a bear that was a thing that was available for purchase at the Mary Poppins musical

315. V is for Vainglorious



Define: vain boastfulness in one's self.

"No one is as magnificent as I!"
"Magnificent git, more like..."

316. W is for Wirabear



This is an old TY beanie that wears the flag of Malaysia. I have some family that live out there, which is why I have the bear.

[Tam I am]

"Chim chimney chiroo!"

When I was a very small child my baby brother had a brown plastic bear head that would play that tune when a string was pulled.

317. X is for Xenas



... It means confident strong women. Yes, it is taken from where you might be guessing. Lol.

That's actually pretty cool!

318. Y is for Yaw-Yaw



As coined by Charles Dickens in Hard Times. To yaw-yaw is to talk haughtily or affectedly

"I do not talk affectedly. I merely open my mouth to let my heart speak it's truth."

[werepuppy]

As a random side thing before I post today's photo? This song has been in my head the past few days. You're welcome: Remember you're a Womble!

319. Z is for Zeal



Define: great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or an objective.

It's little wonder Freya can be so quiet and calm; Ademetus has such a zeal for life in general that he must expend all the energy for both of them.

[Tam I am]

So he's the kind of kitten that spends half his time hanging off your bum by his claws?

320. New Arrival: Marmalade



Arrival Date: 14th November 2020.

My Pipos Star Cheshire arrived! I have been admiring these for a while now, so I put my mind to it earlier this year to save up and get myself one, choosing to order directly from Pipos. And now she's here!

I'm pretty impressed with her now she's in hand. Surprisingly weight, and a solid stander. Also poses really well. She's wearing a Mattel fashion pack item because she's actually a little shorter than I thought she would be, so I need to alter the length of some dresses I had sewn for her. That being said, I like the blue on her.

But yes, my Marmalade, home at last!
