Meet Bertie The Essex Blat Bear


Recommended Posts

Posted

We have a new member in the Essex Area called  Bertie the Blat Bear, he has joined to enjoy passenger rides in the Westfields of Essex and would like to meet as many members as possible.

Being of the younger generation he likes taking selfies and would like you to help him take lots of pictures of him on his travels. He is also very fussy and refuses to travel in anything other than a Westfield.

 

Once he has travelled around with the Essex members he plans to visit as many members of the other WSCC areas as possible, again only travelling by Westfields.

 

Lets see where he gets to and what kind of photos he takes ;)  ;)

I wondered where my Ted had gone :(   He disappeared about 55 years ago.

Might be a good contest in there somewhere.  Total number of different Westfields he travels in / different local areas / fastest track speed he reaches / total distance mailed and driven etc. by the end of year? Each person who drives him kicks in a fiver to the club's charity of the Air Ambulance for a chance to win a club prize like a free renewal?  Give it some thought and let me know if I can help. :t-up:

From what I've seen, if he heads far enough North, he'll only need a T-shirt and some Irn Bru...

We'll have to get Bertie in Pete Goulding's sprint car,  that should give him the highest speed award,  160mph at Hethel!

He is a fine looking chap and I think I will copy his outfit for the colder days.

And just for interest put "blat bear" into Google and look at the image results.

And no... it is NOT like googling "mega squirt" which you should not do on a work computer...

You might just recognise a few usual suspects..!

I love him! he's great, I can't wait until he joins us in the Peak District.

 

Oh and I like the swimming goggles, is that for when it rains again?

Swimming goggles?      They're proper aviation spec.  they are, to keep the flies out of his eyes.

Had his first drive round the M25 Sunday afternoon, think the big trucks scared him a bit, but he's getting used to  Westfield life.
