Life in Newburgh on Ythan

By Talpa

Onwards and upwards.

Now one day Pooh and Piglet and Rabbit and Roo were all playing Poohsticks together. They had dropped their sticks in when Rabbit said, "Go!" and then they had hurried across to the other side of the bridge, and now they were all leaning over the edge, waiting to see whose stick would come out first. But it was a long time coming, because the river was very lazy that day, and hardly seemed to mind if it didn't ever get there at all.

Talpa and Talpa III have always enjoyed a good game of poohsticks. However, the time comes when a boy must move on. And so today, Talpa III moved on, to poohlogs!
