Teddies

Does anyone know where I can buy a teddy either in a rugby outfit or in a traditional welsh costume please?

Don't know where you live mountain, but if you have any "welsh" shops/market stalls nearby they should have something like that. I was looking at "rugby" teddies yesterday in the window of our local welsh shop (Llanelli).

DD has the most hideous thing ever in the shape of a cuddly toy frog dressed in welsh costume. DH's grandmother bought it for her for her first Christmas and its like something out of a horror film!!!!! Its currently in school on the "Bwrdd Dydd Gwyl Dewi" (St David's Day table). I'm hoping they'll keep it!!!!!!

Thanks for the ideas & links.

When my sister had my nephew a couple of years ago, I bought a rugby teddy from the WRU shop in Cardiff but that's no longer there.

Now she's expecting twins and I wanted to get something similar - but as she does know the sexes of the babies I wanted to cover all possibilities before hand!

we still have plenty of rugby shops dotted around cardiff. i can tell you where if you're not familiar with the city (with the st davids 2 redevelopment going on the shops are playing musical chairs at the mo )

other than that, local asda and tescos always seem to have a welsh section somewhere, you might get some luck there :beer:

I`m sure the W.R.U have a shop on line. They did 2 years ago `cos I bought a new Welsh flag & scarves from them.

what about the bear factory or whatever its called, in st davids centre, cardiff down by gamestation and where woolworths used to be they stuff the teddies infront of your eyes and you put a little heart in it etc. they probably have costumes. Thing is the bears are like £30 i think nice sentiment though, you get a "certificate of adoption" and things like that aswell
