More Mail and a Mystery!

 Hiya! We're back! I know... we are soooo behind on our blog posts. The Stuffie Olympics ended weeks ago and we still haven't judged the entries... That's coming! 


Anyhow.... we received some mail a couple of weeks ago!

"Well... let's be totally honest here... Sandy received mail! See... addressed to Sandy..."

"And this one too...."

"But no mail ever comes for me... just for me... sigh..."

Ok... um... right then... moving right along.... (pssst!!!! somebody write Cocoa something!)

This first envelope is from... do you see it? Two little bears!

With a Snoopy sticker... must be Jerry & Ben!

Awww... it's a Valentine's Day card!

Thanks guys!

So sorry we didn't get any cards written this time... sigh... sekrebeary issues.

And this second package is from... 

"England!! It's from my cousins, the Beanie clan... you'd think that they would send me mail but... hmmm.... good point... maybe I need to send some mail first in order to receive some!!! Must think on that some more."

Anyhoo.... we got a card! We've seen that one before we thinks...

Ooohhhhh prizes!!! From the Bus Bingo game! And two prizes too... excellent! Which one do you want Cocoa?

I'm taking the British Library eraser cause I am going to write more letters and don't write well so am going to need this for sure...

Two prizes... such a smart mouse!

And the Big Ben magnet will come in handy on the fridge... Maybe I should post a blog schedule up there for the sekrebeary to see everyday!

And... a Moriarty Mouse mystery... OK... here we go....

"An Oxford Medical student
in the 50s ran a race--
of a mile, and set a fast pace,--
Broke the 4 minute record,
a winner crowned.
This statue now stands
at the PNE fairground.
Who is he?"

Oooh. Oooh!!! We know this!!! Isn't that the race where the guy passed on the outside while the other guy was looking over his inside shoulder... Banner... Bannerman... heck... what is it???

We got it!! It's Bannister!!!

See... there's the statue!! The race was in 1950 for British Empire Days... and they both finished the race in less than 4 minutes. The other guy was Landy from Down Under... Cool! Thanks Moriarty Beanie!!

  1. I just realised!!!! When I send mail to Sherlock Sandy, I can address it to Sherlock Sandy AND Dr Cocoa Watson-Beanie!!!!! Cocoa's got a PhD, right? Right???

    1. Yes!! Cocoa does have a PhD but the certificate was washed away in the big Mouse Island Tsunami. He is listed in the Who's Who of Mice though...
