Welcome To The Mad House Blip-Bear!

I'm currently the honoured host to Blip-Bear - he's a World Wildlife bear, collecting sponsorship donations for this great charity. Today I took Blip-Bear to work with me at County Hall. My team mates in the workshop thought he was great, and we decided a group photo with Blip-Bear as the focal point most appropriate. We've promised him if he comes back again one day next week we'll teach him how to repair a laptop! lol
He'll be staying with me until I go to the Olympics on August 9th (he will of course accompany me there to have a blip taken). I have one or two other things planned for him in the meantime. Then he'll be off to a new temporary 'home' for more adventures with another blipper. The aim is see how far he can travel - maybe even outside the UK to other countries ....

On a more serious note: today's been alternating sunny spells and overcast spells. This evening the skies mostly cleared and the sun appeared again. The resulting skies as it went down looked beautiful, so I whizzed outside armed with my camera and took some shots about 20 minutes ago. As the sun fell further the colours intensified. So here's a GALLERY of shots (no tweaking of contrast - just as it appeared)
