Hi to all you lovely TT’ers !

You will probably declare me mad, but today I am celebrating a special anniversary :  It has been exactly ONE YEAR since I joined TEDDY TALK.  :dance:

And may I say : I haven’t regretted it once!  I don’t think there has been one day in the past year when I haven’t logged on to TT, even if only for a few minutes. 
It has been a real eye-opener to read all these amazing posts : all the beautiful bears and other creatures, the adorable cute animal pics of the day, all the joys and sorrows you have experienced over the past year and have shared with us. 
It has been said before, but I would like to repeat it here loud and clear :

YOU ARE THE BEST !

:dance:

I like to think that I might even have become a slightly better person for having known you all.  bear_original

So I would like to give you all a very big hug and thank you for being such kind, supportive and lovely people !  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:
And to the artists whose bears I have adopted over the past year : Thank you sooooo much for bringing these adorable teddies into my life !  :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

Peter & the whole hug of bears

Its nice to see your hug. Happy Anniversary! I'm not on here half as much as I'd like, you do miss it. I had to check when I joined, July 2005, time sure flies.

Thank you for your kind words, Peter.  :hug:

I stop in almost every day, too, and it's always so encouraging to see a group of kind-hearted people exchanging their thoughts and feelings civilly. (That doesn't seem to be the norm on the Internet, I've noticed.)

Your comments and photos are among the best things here on TT, Peter. Happy anniversary!  :cake:

Happy anniversary to you Peter - yes indeed this is really a great place for bear-lovers in all over the world - and by the way I have to say it helped my English so much reading and writing here on TT - I hope everybody ever understands what I mean, what my language can't tell - my bears will speak for me!!!!!

Have a wonderful beary day - lovely hugs from Austria  bear_wub  bear_thumb  bear_flower

Hello Peter,

Happy Anniversary dear friend.  I can't believe it is a year ago that I first told you about TT, where has the time gone!

So delighted to hear that your bears bring so much joy to your world  ...   what better reason could there be for making bears!

Thank you for being such a wonderful person yourself and for all your lovely comments and photos here on TT.  Here's to the next year!!

Take care.

Hugs

Hi Peter, Congratulations on your year here, and your ever growing teddy family.  Now I know you also visit other forums, when will I see you making an appearance on facebook?  The gangs all there too, and you could have all your teddy pictures posted there. You have great pictures.

bear_wub Peter, may I say what a pleasure it has been to know you this past year, where does the time go.  I have said it before and I will say it again, YOU, are simply the best.  Your kind ways and interest in this forum and the teddy bear world brings such a bright spot to us all here at TT. 
PS, I am so green with envy, I see that bear from Paula at All BEAR, oh how I wish I had one of those, came close last year, but did not get one for Christmas.  I guess Santa dropped the ball, I guess I will have to pick up the slack.
Congrats on the year and may we have many more to come on the this great forum. :dance:

You are the second "teddy bear" person in a few days who asked me why I haven't shown myself on facebook.
I guess I still feel a bit uncomfortable "coming out" with my hug of teddy bears  :redface: .
But I will give it some serious thought and when I do decide to join facebook, TT'ers will be the first ones to be invited as friends  bear_original .

Hugs,  :hug:

The good thing about facebook is you can invite who you want to chat with, and you now have control over your privacy.  So your "secret" can remain with only the chosen.
