With head, paws and toes all freshly scrubbed, time to chill out and natural dry. Might even get some #jaffacakes for being a very good and brave 🐻

It's wash morning! Hunslet is very happy that the swirly whirly machine is already in action and cannot be used. His PA has drawn the short straw and is on 🐻 pedicure duty

Good Morning Hunslet followers Our intrepid 🐻 has had a busy weekend searching through cupboards on his never ending quest for #jaffacakes, came across some old Hunslet merchandise. Hunslet has 2 grade B water bottles for sale, head to www.hunsletthebear.co.uk

Looking back over the years gone by,, here is Hunslet doing some taste testing of @lilypadbakeries finest bear shaped chocolate. Hunslet thought it was a proper winning combination

Thanks to our PA, who has managed to get a box that we can both sit in. However, it does look Millsie has taken top spot in said box though. "We wanna be togetha ❤️"

Welding mask might be a bit overkill! Nature is protecting your eyes hunsie! #solareclipse #cloudsturnedupatthewrongtime

What better way to see the #solareclipse than with a welding mask, some #tunnocksteacakes and obviously some of the finest #jaffacakes

Hunslet says dont forget it is an #solareclipse this evening. He says he had had plenty of practice using the #jaffacake method, see attached below. Spread the word

Hunslet heard it was the annual wash day and had seen his friend Duck hanging on the line. I better hide somewhere he thought. Maybe the swirly whirly machine isnt the best place Hunslet. #swirlywhirlymachine

When Mrs PA asked hunsie if he fancied a weekend away this was most definetely not what he had in mind!

Hunslet heard about an upcoming road trip and decided to pack the 🐻 essentials.

Hunslet was excited to spot his favourite engine in the sidings @bodmingeneral . He wonders how many Jaffa cakes he’d have to share for a ride on that!

Hunslet the 🐻 @hunsletthebear.bsky.social · 06/05/2026
The seats are allocated on @bodmingeneral so Hunslet didn’t have to hurry for a seat. He was lucky to be given a window seat and saw the loco taking on water ready for our trip.

Hunslet the 🐻 @hunsletthebear.bsky.social · 06/05/2026
Hunslet found the perfect wagon to help his PA transport him on days out! I wonder if @bodmingeneral have a spare one to share. Whilst trying it out for size Hunslet spent some time learning about Bodmin heritage railway

Hunslet's two favourite diesel loco types sat one behind the other @gwsr cab day. I am absolutely gutted that I am missing out. Will have to see if i can get down there tomorrow. #gronk #growlergroup

Hunslet went to have a look at his local farm shop #famertedsshed. Lots of ice cream, honey and cheese. Not sure what I am suppose to do with my tangerine though #supportyourlocalfarmer #buylocal

Hunslet went to see a new friend called Mr Big. Hunslet taught Mr Big how to swing on a swing and how to munch on jaffa cakes. Well done Hunslet

Hunslet has been quiet for the last few weeks as he has been taking stock of 2026 so far. To get him out of the dumps that he was in, he decided to invite a few of his friends around. I wonder what mischiefs this crew will get up to.

Played twice, lost twice. It is the taking part that is the important point. Even though I didnt win my PA opened the pack of my finest #jaffacakes #yuzulemonflavour

Hunslet's PA has been out and about in Milan today and came across these with their 🐻 flag. It brought a smile to Hunslet's face when he saw it

Pa has just sent across photos of Milan's Central train station. Much better than Euston or birmingham new street for ambience and styling #Milan #style #italianpanache

My PA has just got his third mainline train for the trip, heading to Milan. He says he likes the new train style vibes. Shame the seating is the same as back home though, like sitting on an ironing board. #bringbackcomfyseats

Hunslet the 🐻 @hunsletthebear.bsky.social · 07/02/2026
My PA said that these coaches definetly gave off #mk2 vibes. Comfy seats, windows that you can open and a smooth ride.

Hunslet waiting patiently at home for his invite on the railway holiday! His PA patiently explaining again he doesn’t have a passport and had to sit out this trip!

Hunslet the 🐻 @hunsletthebear.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
My PA sent me this. A very clever way to clear the snow and ensure that he crew get a cuppa as well. Not sure if it will catch on in the UK though Hunslet approved 👌

Hunslets PA and family have hopped abroad for a quick trip. Whilst away, they decided to try and get some photos that Hunslet would enjoy. As Hunslet is a big fan of gronks, here is the Swiss version.
