THE TALL TALE OF THE LOCH PIE MONSTER!!!!

Last time I wrote, I promised to tell the tale of the Loch Pie Monster and how Charlie Grrr dealt with the foul beastie.

As you can see - the Loch Pie Monster is truly a quite fearsome creature and it is true to say that Charlie Grrr did meet it - at least, just the once...

However - it would also be true to say that when Charlie Grrr saw the Loch Pie Monster - he simply RAN AWAY!!!

But not every bear acts in the same way and this was most certainly not the only sighting of the Loch Pie Monster by one of the furry kind; for only a week or two later, deep-deep in the countryside...

...Charlie's son - the great and growly Charlie Junior - had his own encounter with the gingerbread smelling Loch Pie fiend - and he dealt with the situation in quite a different way!!!

It all happened, one early autumn day - quite recently, when Charlie Jnr was out in his little car, Marigold The Fur-st.

He'd come out for the day - to take a little stroll down the canal...

...And to first an old monument... Not his father, mind - but a castle!!! (hehe)

However, the Loch Pie Monster was out and about too, that day!!

The beast soon spotted the little bear walking along the towpath and decided that he might make a nice snack...

Charlie Jnr was shocked, as he was about to enter one of the tunnels - to see the creature looming out of the darkness at him!!

Junior had two options - to face the beastie or to act like his father had - AND RUN!!!

BUT Junior didn't choose the running option - Charlie stayed to face his adversary!!

Junior stood and fought and very soon afterwards he found himself tucking into a delicious snack!!!

"Ah, well..." he thought as he drove home. "When it comes to the countryside - if you can't join 'em - EAT 'em!"

To finish with this time - here we have the photo of Paul's legs which previously I described as being far scarier than the Loch Pie Monster...

I'm right, aren't I!! Yiiiiiiikes!!!

All the best, Charlie fans!!

MORE SOON!!! xxx
