Bobble has gotten around quite a bit

Posted on May 28, 2020 By admin

The first mention of Bobble the owl in my blog goes all the way back to 2005. I don’t honestly remember when Bobble started living full-time in my bag. Probably while I was working at the EBI and traveling a lot for business.

In the years since, he’s been to Belgium, Canada, England, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the US. He’s driven boats, ferries, tractors, planes. He’s travel on planes, trains and automobiles. He’s drunk lots of coffee, beer, wine, gin, port and cocktails. He’s eaten everything from gourmet meals to roadside fast-food. He’s enjoyed vices like cigars, gambling and tattoos. He’s attended scientific conferences, training courses and workshops, West-End plays and movies.

Not bad for a little ball of stuffing :)

Long live the owl!

Quote of the day

He hated being thought of as one of those people that wore stupid ornamental armour. It was gilt by association.
