New Sparky is apparently called Barry. I wish I'd known there was a vacancy, I'd love a night in the bearsuit :P

I do have though a rather rare photo of the original Norm looking out for some air , sort of Sparky with 2 faces :lol:


Lets see :D
Some people say I used to be called Colzo. Don't listen to them people, I talk much less sense than Colzo.

Couldn't do that as it might mentally scare some kids for life if they saw that Sparky was actually Norm :shock:

Still sticking by my conspiracy theory………..Rooster’s photographic confirmation of the bear facts supports it….

That photo wouldn’t have been from Treviso would it Rooster? (For the benefit of younger readers Norman only travelled as Sparky because the real Sparky couldn’t get into Italy because of fog and strict quarantine rules)

Was that the day after he had gone down to the Treviso woods and had a big surprise when he found that the pic-nic’s only consisted of garlic bread and a very large quantity of Italian wine? If I recall correctly, he seemed very thirsty all during the match, must have been all the garlic bread he ate?

If, as reported earlier, Norm has hung up his porridge bowl for good, he is to be thanked and applauded for his work over the years, right down to the many times (I've been told) that he dug deep into his OWN furry pockets to provide the chocolate treats for his legion of fans, well done Norm, you’re a legend!
"Cheer up" he said "It could get worse", so I cheered up, and it got worse...
