Timbo would like to inform everyone that he is currently taking a vacation, in the vicinity of Los Hornitos, north of Antofagasta, in northern Chile.

He is not contactable by telephone as he is by the beach. He does not want interruption to this intensive lifestlye nor hassle from the paparazzi, whose treatment of Kate Middleton has, in the words of Timbo, defied the rules of decency and non-intrusion.

For press enquiries, please contact us. Photographs available on request.

For general enquiries as to the activities and whereabouts of Timbo, please also, ermmm, contact us.

While Rachel’s away, the boys have been at play. I’ve been testing the limits of my new sound system made by Sony. I believe that they have incorporated a new technology into the system known as an Acoustic Levitation and Positioning Device, tested by NASA in the early 1990s, on blocks of stone or similar materials.

I was searching for a test device and found….errmmm, Timbo. The result?

Amazing! Nasa explains the phenomenon as follows (from their patent, in 1991):

“An acoustic levitator includes a pair of opposed sound sources which have interfering sound waves producing acoustic energy wells in which an object can be levitated. The phase of one sound source may be changed relative to the other in order to move the object along an axis between the sound sources.”

I could call this a mildy successful experiment, were it not for the neighbours!
Didn’t Timbo do well?! Beat that Big Al! (I understand Big Al is currently sitting on Kim’s bed…boring, boring bear!)

Doug: “So Timbo, what did it feel like?”
Timbo: “Fabulous, man… but what’s with the noise? I’m bear-ly able to hear!”

Timbo: “A big HELLO to all my fans out there. I send you all festive greetings! May you all be blessed by Timbo this year. If you are particularly lucky, you might be willing to travel to my ranch using every air mile you’ve ever collected. Wouldn’t that be great?!”

Doug: “Yes Timbo. So, Timbo, is there a reason for your New Year message today?”

Timbo: “Urrmmm. Not really. But i just wanted to say to my fans I love you all! Particularly you, Michael, who has been sending me messages every day since discovering my website. My special envoys Douglas and Rachel recently returned with a Pan du Pascua hand-made by Michael. It was very nice. It was fit for a bear.”

Doug: “Ho ho Timbo, watch out for that wicked humour… you’re only a bear. Luckily, for you, Timbo (eh hermmmm, and us), the Pan du Pascua didn’t fit inside a bear and you didn’t eat it all.”

Hesitation.

“Well I think we should finish with that Timbo.”

God Bless you Awwwwwll!

Timbo: “A happy new year to awwwwwwll you plebs” (said with a tentative, nervous smile in the style of Elizabeth)

Doug: “Yes Timbo, I think thats enough of the Pisco. You’re already near-horizontal.”

Now that we’ve found a flat to live in elsewhere, the reality of moving house has hit us. Its going to be painful to leave our temporary flat for one key reason…. it has a jacuzzi in the bath! Fantastic. Even Timbo appreciates this… here he is, awaiting a session in the jacuzzi.

And afterwards, he drys that thick, tough bear hair of his…

Stay watching for more exciting episodes of The NEW adventures of Timbo!.

Well Rachel returned to Santiago on a beautiful smog-free evening. I returned only an hour before, to find her cheeky teddy raiding the snack cupboard!

DG: “What’s this timbo?! I’ll have to tell Rachel. You’ll be in a lot of trouble.” (cue angry face)

Timbo: “I’m going crackers without her.”
