Since Monday my two year old has ran round the house shouting for Arthur !

She keeps telling me that Arthur is here and that he smells and when we went out yesterday she said "Arthur come"

I'm racking my brains but I don't know anyone called bloody Arthur and I am already getting a little sick of hearing his name LOL

DS had "Spotted Horse" (not a stuffed toy, an invisible spotted horse) for a couple of weeks when he was around 2.11, but then seemed to give up on him -- a pity, in a way, because suggesting that Spotted Horse might like to do something was a great way to persuade DS to do it.
