I was jolly pleased to hear the humans say that they could take me along with them on The Supermarket Slay Ride. The purpose of the ride was to collect food from supermarkets for a charity, The Trussell Trust, to create Christmas hampers for humans that don’t have much money at the moment. I was ready to go before the humans!
The ride was organised by All Terre Adventures. All taking part met in the Small Goods cafe at Temple Meads.
Everyone was given a shopping list, and the remit was to buy at least 5 items each while on the ride.
After cycling for about an hour we stopped for brunch at Warmley Waiting Room, a lovely cafe situated on the Bristol – Bath cycle path.
Dr Who had left his tardis at Warmley Station! I didn’t see him there though.
The ride was quite long for a small bear, 28 miles mostly on cycle paths around Bristol. Here I am in Stoke Park with The Dower House behind me.
When we were nearing the end of the ride we stopped to get the shopping.
Mince pies; yum yum yum….
Tinned vegetables, they will keep and are easy to cook.
I collected up quite a few items on the list and took them to the checkout.
At the end of the ride I climbed up and put all the things that we had bought on the table where everything was being collected.
Lots of food had been collected, which will make festive meals for quite a few humans.

The author’s vivid descriptions paint a vivid picture of Horace’s adventures, making it easy for readers to imagine the quaint scenes and heartwarming encounters. It’s refreshing to escape into a world where a teddy bear becomes a symbol of companionship, kindness, and the simple joys of life.
