Leave No Bear Behind Part 12: The Pitiful Thing About Tiggers

Oh the pitiful thing about tiggersIs tiggers are unwanted thingsTheir tops are strung up from crossbeamsTheir bottoms just dangle from stringsThey're dirty, hurty, dead by thirtyWrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrongBut the most pitiful thing about tiggers isHe's not the only oneIndeed, there are plenty more sorry-looking, homeless and abused soft toys out there, as our increasingly tedious series attests. London can be a cruel, hard city, where the naive animals of the Hundred Acre Wood have little chance of survival. This image of a lynched Tigger, hanging from the rafters of platform 15/16 at Clapham Junction, comes from reader Dave Arquati. May the orange-one's bouncy soul finally rest in peace.
