PERKIE GOES TO SEA

To celebrate some of the events of Perkies coming 21st Birthday, he went to sea on Sunday aboard   The Seahunter deep sea angling boat. This boat is a 42ft interceptor with full seating inside a centrally heated cabin. It also has an electric toilet, microwave  and hot and cold drinks at your disposal. Reef and wreck fishing are a speciality and it is equipped with a 3D Simrad Olex Sonar System for superb Wreck Fishing. You can fish for sharks when they are in season or take an evening trip for Mackerel and Conger Eels.
Seahunter is licensed and insured for both fishing and diving. Learn to dive with fully qualified and experienced divers. and for advanced divers there are more than 25 wrecks for you to explore. Operated year round out of Youghal and Cork Harbour.
For more information contact 024 90437 or 087 2112488 or check out www.seahunter.ie
As we were saying Perkie went out to sea on Sunday to go fishing and got himself stuck in the door of the electric flush loo and it took all his other fellow fishermen to pull him out. After this Gavin, the skipper of Seahunter, cooked him up a feed of fish and chips and poor old Perkie spent the trip home head hanging over the side. And Gavin Tivy, Skipper, advised Perkie to get some seasick tablets next time he’s going out to fish or else go easy on eating the catch. Also there was alot of ice-cream in the fridge on board which disappeared, and it is strongly rumoured that ice-cream, fish and chips don’t mix too well when a Bear is at Sea!!!

PERKIE BEAR GOES MISSING

Don’t worry everyone it was only temporary. Perkie Bear visited the circus last week and never returned home after. We soon found out that he decided he was going to join the circus. So off he went with them. He had to help them take down the Big Top before they got on the road, feed the animals and walk the dogs. Of course the dogs were not too happy about been walked by a bear, they tried to bite Perkie many times. The circus thought that Perkie would make a great clown so he got working on his act straight away. First of all they couldn’t gat the make- up to stay on Perkies fur and there was no hat big enough for his head. They tried to fire Perkie out of a Cannon but Perkie, after eating all the Catch on Seahunter last week wouldn’t even fit into it. He fell from the tight rope and he dropped everything when he tried juggling. perkie finally realised that the Circus wasn’t for him and that his home truly was at Perks Funfair.

PERKIE’S VISIT TO BLACKPOOL.

Perkie Bear visited Blackpool Shopping Centre last week. He was delighted to meet all his little fans again. He had vouchers for everyone and a coluring competition for the little ones. It was so hot last week that he spent alot of time filling up on delicious creamy ice-cream. He can’t wait to go back again. He caught up on some shopping but had a hard time trying to get a pair of shoes in his size.
His next adventure takes him to the Summer Show in Greenfields Cork  from 18th to 20th of June. He’s busy trying to think of what he’s going to wear and what he’s going to give everyone. He hopes to see alot of familiar faces there. He is quite tired after his few days in Blackpool, so he’s off to catch up on some well deserved sleep.
Don’t forget to send in your colouring competition entries and you could win VIP vouchers and some FREE kiddy rides with compliments of Perkie Bear. Hope to see you all soon.
