a new concept-bears aren't all cuddly!!
The new site everyone is talking about, and featuring the now massive cult status "Stiffsteiff Teddy Bear" family. Watch their decidedly dubious dealings, their awesome and amazing antics, their pathetic pathos! These bears will transform your life, and also contain alternative pursuits in their missions, which are worth following, and more pleasurable, less obese than being glued to the TV for hours on end. The Stiffsteiff bears will allow you to LAUGH, and have FUN, without resorting to crudity, smut, or porn. This is somewhere your kids can actually go without you wondering about the content, and they will learn new things through following the bears; gardens, countryside, photography, ponds, walks, National Trust houses. I am sure you would rather have them being interested in proper, real pursuits than being cooped up in their room with a TV and a computer for friends,their only contacts with the world around them via a mobile phone which helps to teach them how never to spell and how to successfully become introverted without really having to try too hard!! So instead of games, through their computer they LEARN there are more worlds than their important seeming virtual world. For bigger kids there are superb fully downloadable photos, and the originals can be requested and delivered via email. There are practical, pictorial step by step projects showing how to do various jobs outdoors, ponds, lawns, landscapes, gardens. Also there are computer tips, and an amazing feature where the author of the site, an ex systems programmer will ressurrect cds sent to him deemed ruined; so your holiday snaps might well NOT be beyond repair!! He also fixes pictures, either via email or by scanning in posted snaps, and returning them undamaged and much enhanced . Pictures fade, and crack cds survive and endure. This superb site can be found by typing "Stiffsteiffs" into ANY search, or by clicking the link below now.
