Es ist ein Panda

A postcard from Gordon...
I hadn't heard from Gordon for a while, until this photo turned up in my inbox.



Seems the travelling panda has been jetsetting again, soaking up some World Cup fever.

Who is Gordon?


With thanks to Bruddy...
Gordon is a panda who lives in a small patch of bamboo near Morton St in Wollstonecraft. He came to my family's attention when my brother found him and got chatting.

Gordon is a fairly well-travelled panda, as evidenced by the above photograph and the numerous postcards sent by him back home. He has participated in the Sydney-to-Hobart yacht race once, but admitted that he was "pretty sh*tscared the whole time". Gordon has been kind enough to send the occasional birthday greeting, and a lovely wedding message. He may or may not have had a suburb named after him.

Gordon is harmless, despite rumours that he enjoys eating children. He maintains that a child's shoe was found lying next to his bamboo patch merely because he likes collecting children's shoes.
