Oh my goodness, we're on the Eurotunnel but heading in the wrong direction. There must be some sort of malfunction! 😮

Today we went to the cyclocross in Middelkerke It was pretty good! But now I'm a bit thirsty...🐻 🚴‍♀️ 🇧🇪

Arpad & I went to Antwerp today. Guess what? We drank beer!! This was us in Station 1280. Hic! #smallbearsneedbeer

Grumpus Bear is having a nice lunch in Roeselare. Just look at those gooey eggs!! 🥚

At lunchtime, brave warrior Arpad faced a portion of frites at least SIX times bigger than him. Guess what? ARPAD WON!! 🍟 🐻

Good news: Arpad & I are in PUB and all our needs have been fully catered for 🤣

Arpad is protesting, saying he's NOT a snow depth measuring device, but to no avail 🤣

I've no idea why we're outside in this weather. We should be warmly wrapped up at home, or in PUB! 😮 ❄️

We're going to be the first customers of the year in our favourite bear pub! 🐻 🍻

Happy New Year! Last night Arpad found a handy beer mat holder to sit in. It's great as it means he can't fall over when drunk! We need one of these at home 🤣 🐻 🍻

Theo @tourguideted.bsky.social and I found the secret bear storage from @beerbear21.bsky.social and @hungarianbear.bsky.social here in Bruges

Delilah Bear wishes all of our friends a very Happy Christmas (so do I but she insisted on being photographed).😄

Lenny Bear is the cover pin up on the 2026 Teddy Calendar! 🍻 🐻

For the past few weeks Google Maps has been increasingly unreliable stopping me updating anything. To that end I've been quickly learning Open Street Map and I am now happy to share the link : u.osmfr.org/m/1334010/ This will the Guide map going forward. The Google one will remain but not updated.

Delilah Bear: 'Samuel's taken me out for Christmas beers at De Kelk. As the larger bear I've been given the larger pour of Stille Nacht!' 🍻 #smallbearsneedbeer

I think it's time for an ENORMOUS pie. One of my best, I think you'll agree? #ChefSamuel

There were just a few bears at t'Brugs Beertje that day!

Grumpus Bear is on his 7th beer of the Kerstbierfestival already! This is his favourite, Krampus - which definitely sounds a bit like Grumpus, so no wonder he loves it! 🐻 🍻 🇧🇪

Grumpus Bear is on his way to Essen. There's a Christmas beer festival today in Essen. I think these two facts are in some way connected 🤣 🍻🎄

Bear Beer Cellar was located by two expert beer tasters this morning 🤣 @tourguideted.bsky.social @bearemyted.bsky.social

Our 2026 calendar has been ordered...

Arpad & I are training hard ahead of the arrival in Brugge of LOTS of famous bears next Tuesday. Got to get in good shape 😊 🐻 🍻 🇧🇪

@beerbear21.bsky.social I made this little sketch painting from your post in PUB. Hope you like it. 👍 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Tonight it's the turn of Grumpus Bear to go to PUB. He's drinking Stille Nacht 2025 and you can just tell how much he's enjoying it 🤣 🐻 🍻

Lenny Bear is on a rare solo visit to PUB this afternoon. He's loving the draft Père Noël, as you can tell from his big smile.

It's time for 2020 Stille Nacht! 🍻 🌲 #smallbearsneedbeer

Beer is served! At Lupulus Brewery Tap in the beautiful Ardennes. It's quite bear friendly here, but I'm glad we got on the right side of the big bad wolf 😮

We've arrived at the Lupulus Brewery Tap in the Ardennes. It's great, and we've already tamed the huge wolf! Now, which way to the taproom? 🍻

We're in PUB drinking draft Stille Nacht, to welcome @boelekeopreis.bsky.social to Blue Sky! 🍻 🐻

Ooooh, this looks highly promising! I foresee beer in the near future 😊 🐻 🍻

WE'RE BACK IN PUB!! The humans have FINALLY finished their latest Dutch course, so we've time for more important matters like 'bear beer research' 🤣 🐾 🇧🇪

"Contrast is good" Cambridgeshire Fens, 2025

We had an amazing time at Brugge Beer Festival! As well as great beers, there was a good turn out of bears (& a small elephant) & we loved spending time with @humph-hugo.bsky.social & @jetooks.bsky.social 😊 🍻 🐻 🐘

Delilah Bear starts Brugge Beer Festival with 2 beers and an emergency bottle of wine!! What could go wrong?!! @beerbear21.bsky.social

Beer festival! With @hungarianbear.bsky.social @beerbear21.bsky.social

We've arrived an hour & five minutes early for Brugge Beer Festival, but we appear to be first (& second & third) in line, so mission accomplished 🤣 🍻 🇧🇪

Today we got a lift to TWO breweries, thanks to our wonderful human friend @mandyward.bsky.social. Firstly St Bernardus in Watou, then De Dolle Brouwers in Esen, our favourite! We drank ALL the Boskeun 🤣 🍻

Look what clever Arpad found! I feel sure @millymammoth.bsky.social will be interested 🤣

Arpad & I went to Oostende today and met some friendly locals outside the station.

Arpad & I are in Brussels & look what he's found: yes it's Tulip Street!! He's in bear heaven 😂 🐻 🌷

Gus Bear enjoys a rare visit to the garden with a Hommelbier 🍻 🐻

Lucky Grumpus Bear went to yet another beer festival today, this one an international beer fest in Zwevegem near Kortrijk. He's such a lucky bear 🍻 🇧🇪 🐻

A beautiful summer evening on the Belgian coast: just before sunset at De Haan.

Best idea I've heard all day 🤣

Bears have beer in Antwerp! 🍻 🐻

Well this looks highly promising! 😊 🐻 🇧🇪

We're back in our favourite London pub - The Bear Pub, Paddington! First time trying the range of special bear seats. They all get our paw of approval. The beer, of course, is excellent! 🐾 🍻 🐻

We FINALLY returned to the Proms last night at the Royal Albert Hall. It was fantastic to meet up with our old friends @basilsheep.bsky.social & Barney! 🐻 🐑 🎶

#BBCproms reunion! 🐻 🐑 @hungarianbear.bsky.social @beerbear21.bsky.social & Basil
