Hurray the new drawings have started to arrive!

I don't know if I mentioned to you platty lovers that Steve is writing a new story about me and Charlie (well mainly me!). I don't want to give the ending of the story away but lets just say I'm great, I may even win a gold medal! Coooool eh?
Have you guessed what the story is about yet?
The first of Molly's drawings have come in and they look absolutely fab! We are so excited!
Can't wait to see the rest of the drawings. It won't be long now before Steve can put the story and the drawings together into a lovely new book. Then it will be off to the printers so that all my fans can enjoy our latest adventure.
Keep your eyes peeled for the next great Harold and Charlie adventure. Don't worry I'll let you know when you need to rush down to the shops or get onto the interweb to buy the book! I look after my fans!

Ps I wonder whether Celebrate with Kate's Cakes could do some scrummy cupcakes in the shape of me and a gold medal????? I'll have to get my order in for the book launch.

It's Christmas in January!

Me and Charlie got really excited yesterday. We were watching one of our favourite programmes when the adverts came on. They were all talking about Christmas and that Santa would be visiting very soon! Wow we both thought, that's great it doesn't seem like a whole year since Santa came the last time. Whooooooppppppeeeeeeee, we love Christmas. Did I tell you that me and Charlie (well its was really mostly me)saved Christmas the year Santa ate too many mince pies? It's a great read, if you search for 'Harold saves Christmas' on the interweb, you'll find it.
Well, I went to ask Mandy when we were going to be able to get the tree.
"Good grief", she said, "we've only just put all of the Christmas decorations away in the loft!"
Me and Charlie explained that it said on the telly that it was nearly Christmas, "the telly is always right", explained Charlie.
Unfortunately for us it seems that the telly isn't always right, especially when you are watching programmes off the iplayer! Booooooooooo, it seems like its ages before Christmas is coming. I'll have to check the website www.haroldtheplatypus.co.uk to see how far away it is.
Hang on in there Christmas and Santa lovers I'm sure it will be December before we know it....
Off for a cheese and pickle sandwich to cheer myself up

Thank you Santa

Mandy is always saying that it's very important to say thanks for the lovely presents we get. Me and Charlie have just finished writing ours. It took ages and we had just finished when I realised there was one very important person that we had forgotten. Well done me for remembering!
Santa - we had forgotten Santa! How could we forget Santa?
As you know Christmas is my favourite time in the year, so it's very important to be super nice to Santa.
Anyway I've written a lovely thank you note to Santa.
Its already less than 365 days to next Christmas so I also sent Santa the startings of my new Christmas list. It's never too early!

Hey dude!

Me and Charlie have been hitting the slopes, we've also been learning a new language, "it was sick, dude". Not really sure what that means but it sounds really cool.
We had a go at snow boarding, it was great, although I didn't really need a board, when you've got flippers as big as mine you don't need to stand on a board:)
Charlie kept falling over cos he wasn't as good as me, he looked more like a snow ball than a bear. I don't think that bears are meant to snow board!
Bye boarding dudes, enjoy riding the snow!
