Maybe showing my age in this high tech era, but thought it would be good fun to play with one while on Skype with my grandson who is in Thailand. So if anyone has any to sell or would be happy to make, say two, that will be great. Looked at patterns on youtube, looks simple, but nothing is that simple for an ex accountant...Tony 05338857009

Hope 4 Pets have a craft club that meets in Ozankoy may be worth contacting them.

Use a marker to make two dots above the seam for the eyes. ...
