Emergency call out

This is Rupert. He was lost somewhere between the clocktower and waitrose today and my 18 month old nephew is now home WITHOUT Rupert.

So its a long shot but please PM me if you see him

A little bump

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer · 25/11/2018 20:34

If he doesn’t turn up. I think he is a jellycat bashful Fox. They are still made so should be easy to replace.

Thanks Falcon.

I've got some kind of horrible cold and an early start so am off to bed with a lempsip and some kittens but if anyone else feels like bumping this post about poor lost Rupert I'd be very grateful.. he's got to be somewhere.. foxes don't just disappear into thin air :(

Try Facebook local pages for lost and found, if you haven’t already. :)

I felt a bit bad writing it tbh. It seems very sad to talk about replacing a beloved toy. Sad

Have sent you a pm

listsandbudgets · 25/11/2018 20:58

I’m sat here smiling as I’ve had a crappy day and this has made me feel a lot better being able to be useful! Foxy will be on his way home tomorrow hopefully!

I've just PM'd you crispbutty.

I got up to talk to sister and noticed your message had come in (LO having finally fallen to sleep from sheer exhaustion) and she's so happy.

I can't believe you found him so fast, thank you so much

SItting here with a huge smile on my face. Honestly he loves that fox - he does not go far without it
