Can't understand why these bears won't happily get into the boxes - after all they are champagne boxes :) It's all hands on deck this week as I pack for the big move next week!
I presume these are Paddington's sophisticated cousins? I do have some sympathy with their dilemma. Perhaps they're thinking something like this.
''Champagne...Oooh, how jolly good! What...none left! Why would we want to get into an empty champagne box? There's something afoot here...although there's no smell of rats!''
Forgot to say, I used to have a large collection of bears...or so I thought until I saw yours. It was a mere flea bite by comparison. Great to see a predominance of pandas!
I guess none of these are staying behind though ... good luck with all that ... My house is emptying as I type. I'm hanging around with nothing to do until they're finished ... then it's the big clean!
@s4sayer Love your story Margo!! I'd agree with the bears - definitely needs to be champagne in there!!! This is just a minute part of my collection - the ones I'm trying to pack tonight - I've decided I have way too many for this moving caper!! @susiemc It's not really exciting!! I'm over it already! @jamibann Wish i had nothing to do!! I've been cleaning as I go so hopefully not too much to do after the removalists come Tuesday - but I'm sure there will be. Hope all goes well for you :)
I used to have a minute 'gathering of bears' compared to your multitude...and eventually gave them to childrens' charities...where I thought they'd be loved and appreciated more appropriately.
Goodness- there is no shortage of bears here! I hope they all enjoy the new abode (no matter how they get there) and that the move goes smoothly and well for you. It's so hard to pack up the years!
Oh, my goodness! You certainly have a terrific bear collection! They're just playing around when they could be helping you with the packing. Good luck with your move! :-)

Love all your bears. Are you moving far? Oops, just noticed Babs asked the same.
