Welcome 2016 - Plushiland Finds New Home

After many months of Exile (storage boxes), Plushiland has finally found a new home. We are now living in somewhat reduced circumstances compared to before, but we make the best of it. Before we were allowed into Plushiland we had to experience the indignity of being vacuumed to remove any storage dust.

Waiting for the Vacuum Cleaner

Speaking of Indignity for Plushis. See how some Disneys have been treated in London, Brit-Plush.

Indignity in London, Mostly Mickey Mouse, who I really do not like!

During the year some of us were able to travel. Piep Mouse and Nooshie travelled to the United States. This was one of those trips that, I, Ratti von Plush did not go on. I do not travel with Nooshie as he is far too anti-Plush (social). I am hoping to travel to the USA later this year to meet some local PLushis.

Around the Royal Birthday Month, November we travelled to the seaside, to get away from the hectic affairs of Plushiland. The weather was not great and the venue was a bit boring. But if you have to depend on The HUMANS to make the travel arrangements, this is what happens.

We are really hoping in 2016 to keep the number of new Plushis down but there seems to be a constant stream into Plushiland. At least we have a large balcony from which we can look down on the HUMANS.

Ratti and Edna on their Balcony

Let me take this opportunity to wish all Plushis in the HUMAN world a wonderful 2016. Hoping that your HUMANS treat you well.

Winter Sun, Crocodiles and Extinction

In Plushiland we have been enjoying the summer sun. Some weeks back Gediva and his Cousins took a trip to the Big River. While at night Plushiland watches Plushi-Appropriate films.

Home again watching cartoons

Very bad news has reached us from Australia. It seems that you HUMANS are responsible for many creatures (always the small Mammals) being on the verge of extinction. Well the HUMAN Politicians in Australia are not the greatest, a lot of the Flat-Earthers and Global Warming Deniers over there. And as usual the animals introduced by you HUMANS are causing all the problems, foxes and the Devil's own creation the CAT! Ba I hate Cats. Not as much as I hate that Mickey Mouse, but that is another story.

Cute Aussie Mammals soon to be gone. (picture Jonathan Webb)

Save my ME! (picture Kym Brennan)

In other news the Independent reports that Crocodiles like to play with balls, While you see are Handbags and Shoes! Shame on YOU!

Who will play with me?

Come in and Play (source the Independent.co.uk)

Due to circumstances beyond our control I have had to delay part of my planned Royal Visit. But I will still be visiting England soon. I may have time to post between my engagements and I hope that the Euro will still be around when I next post. Invest in Diamonds, YOU have been warned. Gold has already increased in value. Or there is always Bitcoin. Maybe I should introduce Ratti-Coin.

Christmas Plushiland 2014, Ratti von Plush Give DIAMONDS

It is time once more for Christmas. It is my 12th Christmas. Today, WE received a Royal Sled. And later WE will be travelling around the world to collect Diamonds. Bit like Father Christmas, only difference is that you give US, Father Ratti Christmas the Presents. High, Value, Portable Property; Diamonds Preferred.

Father Ratti Christmas, out collecting Diamonds

Plushiland welcomes another orphan

Plushiland at the Movies. Lord Gediva, is closest to the camera.

In OUR last post WE mentioned the Paddington Bear Movie. Well some Plushiland representatives went and saw it with THE HUMAN. Well it was very boring and they went to sleep during the movie. HUMAN children might like it. BUT London is not nearly as welcoming as the movie suggests. Enough said!

And another orphan finds a home at Christmas

Wrap up warm

Well We must be off and start collecting OUR gifts. Seems that squirrels are responsible for global warming. Not it not Squirrels, YOU HUMANS are to Blame.

So Merry Christmas and Merry Plush. I will be back in the new Year, and all years are the Year of the Ratti.

Pertaining to Fat Bears and a Bearded Lady Oh and DIAMONDS

Fuleco

The affairs of state have been keeping me very busy in the

last few weeks. As usual we have had to welcome new immigrants. Firstly we have Fuleco from Brazil.

Save ME from Extinction

 
 He is the official mascot of the 2014 HUMAN World Cup Soccer in Brazil. He has been appointed by Kind Drooley of Plushiland to help our overweight Bears Exercise. It seems that many of the Bears have too high BMI - Bears Mass Index. This means also that they are suffering from high Plush-Lestrol. Very dangerous as there internal Fluff can become hard as stone. So it has been decided that all Bears with a BMI of over 40 will have to exercise with Fuleco. I have no problem with Bears turning to stone and so did not agree with the employing of the foreigner, Fuleco but I was overruled by King Drooley on this occasion.

Gym Class for Bears with BMI over 40

The other new arrival is Plushiland is The Purple Flying Mule he is related to Emile our Xmas Donkey. So he was able to come to Plushiland on a Family Visa. Grrrr. Anyway Magento is great and he has already found a job in my office as Cultural Attache. I am adaptable if nothing else!

Ratti and Magento, Flying Donkey

Plushi-Vision Winner. Bear dressed as Tigger

Two weeks ago we had our Plushi-Vision Song Contest. And the winner was a Bear who had cross dressed as a Tigger. I mean what is the world coming too. Seems a bit unPlushi to Me(an). But of course the Bears loved it.


It is like a woman with a beard winning the HUMAN Eurovision. [a woman AS a Beard is fairly common, a woman WITH a beard less so] Oh wait that has already happened, the fabulous Conchita Wurst (Ms. Sausage).

Eurovision 2014 Winner, Conchita Wurst

Eat your heart out Dame Shirley Bassy. Okay, I like Dame Shirley more, because "DIAMONDS are forever". And Ratti loves Diamonds more than Power!!!! I would not be surprised if Ms. Wurst's Phoenix is spotted in the skies over Plushiland.

As Plushiland is not actually part of the European Yet, like the Ukraine, we will not be holding elections here in Plushiland tomorrow. Oh wait we never hold elections here. All Fluff is Equal and the least of our Fluff is Better than the best of your Flesh. ha ha ha ha. Maniacal Laughter from Ratti Von PLush. Time to take over the WORLD.....

Ratti Von Plush to Visit South Africa

Ratti von Plush will be visiting South Africa (Azania) in March 2014. I am including a map just to show you where it is. Some people think that Africa is a country, no it is a continent, my clever HUMANS.

Oh My, Great Plushi in the Sky, South Africa is a country!

In order to prepare for my visit I have been meeting with Expat Plushis from Azania.

Here is a photo of some of the Azanian-Plushi Expats.











I am hoping to be able to bring some DIAMONDS back to help my private retirement fund. What with Dictators being thrown out in the UKRAINE and such like. I need to plan for my own retirement. I see that my friend President Pushtin (of Russia) or rather President Push-his-weight-around aint so Heppi (south African dialect) about the developments in UKRAINE. I am going to assume that you have heard of both Russia and Ukraine. And all this upset coming at the time of Pushtin's very successful, Blotchi Fascist Games. Funny about a Russian being a Fascist, would have thought he would be a Socialist at very least. But then what do I know about HUMAN politics.

Edna and Ratti go Ethnic

 The trip from Plushiland to Azania takes a long time and we always have to travel in the HUMANS suitcase. Although this seems like INDIGNITY. It is better than being prodded and plush by the Security Guards, if we travel in the HUMANS Hand Luggage. I mean do I look like I am going to hide drugs inside my FLUFF???

King Drooley of Great Dignity was felt up by some horrible MAN at Munich Airport the last time he travelled in the Hand Laggage in 2003. This was before my time. Else I would have told the MAN to FLuff-Off. Stranger Danger and all that. "Stop Feeling up the PLushis, you Nasty MAN!!"

King Drooley takes a break

Well, I hope to be able to update you all while in South Africa. But I am not sure if they have the INternet there yet. We will be collected from the Airport by one of the Village Elephants. So you might have to wait until I get back to Plushiland.







In my absence, The day to day business of Plushiland will be Handled by Margie and Libby.

Happy Year of The Plush 2014

It has been a while since my last post. I have a nice new ribbon.

Ratti's Fab New Ribbon.

In my last post I mentioned that I would be going to Brit-Plush (England) for the HUMAN Christmas. I hope that you all behaved yourselves, did not get too drunk or spend too much money. How many of your are still paying off Xmas 2012? I never spend more than I have, beside I do not buy presents or gifts for other Plushis. They give me gifts because I am so wonderful...

Well we (Ratti, Edna, King Drooley, Count Eccles and Tollie) travelled to Brit-Plush with the HUMAN. As usual we had to travel in the suitcase. It is not so bad as soon as it goes dark [Suitcase is closed] we PLushis go to sleep. It was a really early start for the HUMAN, but we went to sleep the previous evening.

The Travel Cabal: Tollie, Eccles, Drooley, Ratti and Edna. 2012 Travels

Yes, I have used this photo before, but there you go!

 On your Christmas Day, Edna and I when for a walk around Salford Quays in Manchester. See me looking around and spreading Plushi Joy to all HUMANS that we met, on our Royal Walk About. I hope that many of you HUMANS provided homes to PLUSHIS at Christmas time.

I am your Ruler, HUMANS. I am the King of Salford

 

Poor Pooh is completely faded. Shame on you Brit-Plush HUMANS

In very disturbing news, one of my spies in Brit-Plush send me these pictures of Plushis being abused by humans. These poor PLushis have no homes, live out side some impaled on spikes, to suffer and fade in the sun. I have made a complaint at the International Court of Plushi-Rights. This sort of thing cannot continue. Please ensure that you provide proper housing for all your Plushis. Thank you to SW for reporting this to me.

Is this how HUMANS treat US?

Disgusting abuse!

In happier news. HUMANS have shown kindness to Bats Babies in Australia. Due to the recent heat wave in Australia, [there is no such thing as Global Warming!], these Bat Babies had fallen out of their tree. They are being well cared for as you can see. Cute, Cute, Cute.

Bat Babies at Risk

Well that is my first message for the year. I hope that all you HUMANS had a great start to the New Year. Greetings from Plushiland. We are keeping an eye on you.

Badgers, Police and Democracy/Democra-Fluff

According to the guardian.see link the Police are passing protesters's [against the killing of BADGERS] details over to the Farmer's Union in the UK. Gosh, now that is really surprising.

Just like my Bat NSA, tells me what the Teddy Bears are up to in Plushiland. And how do you think I know what is going on in the HUMAN WORLD. I get reports from all my Plushi-Spies [obviously not Teddy Bears - they like HUMANS too much. Real case of Stockholm Syndrome] in your HUMAN HOUSES. Anyway, the police here in Plushiland would not support the killing of Badgers. The Organs of the state saying "Please, no I am just doing my job", that excuse cannot be used since the Second HUMAN World War, or Apartheid in South Africa.

Is it just me? Or are some [one does need to be reasonable and not imply ALL] Police particularly nasty. In UK, Shooting innocent people, killing people at demonstrations [okay one HUMAN and he had a weak heart, well he did after he was pushed by the policeman]. So supporting the killing of BADGERS seems the next step....At recent protests in Frankfurt, Germany the police were also a bit over keen to protect commercial interests.

Of course WE do not have protests in Plushiland. Everyone is happy with OUR Non-Democratic System in Plushiland. We have a ruling Council, the Privy Council that represents the needs of all Plushis, so they do not have to worry about Democra-Fluff. We have a perfect system here. Non- Represenatitive Plushi Democra-Fluff (NRPDF).

Privy Council serves the needs of all Plushis

Bit like HUMAN China, okay that is much more complicated. I cannot be bothered to find out anyway. I am very busy, I have to arrange a Teddy Bears's Tea Party. UGH how horrible. Silly Bears and their religion.

I also need to send my best wished to the old [double meaning intentional] and new Germany Queen, Angie, the First of that Name.

What the Greek Papers think

Will she rule longer than Baroness, Margaret Thatcher, the First of England? At least MT had policies......The statement does not imply that Ratti Von Plush supports these Policies.

Speaking of Democa-Fluff, I had  long meeting, at the weekend with the God-King, Tutankhamun. Or Rather his Plushi Counterpart, King Tuti-Bear, from Manchester, England. Tuti had some good ideas, about things like slavery and so on.... Tuti also had a Grand Vizier, AY. [so I am in good company as King Drooley's Grand Vizier] And it is simply not true that the Grand Vizier killed the King, Tuti.

King Tuti Bear, Ratti Von Plush and Edna as the Scribe

Maybe Having God Kings has put the Egyptians off Democra-Fluff permanently?Too soon? Too Late?

I visited the Plushi Aristocracy at weekend in Disney Mews.

Ratti Von Plush and Edna visit the Disney Mews, home of the Plushi Aristocracy. Few Bears!

There have been some complaints that religion is not mentioned enough in my posts. So I am now naming myself, the Pontifex Maximus of the Great Plushi in the Sky. [This is why I have to organise the Teddy Bears's Tea Party] I have this very original IDEA, I am hoping to use religion to control the Teddy Bears, not sure if it will work.

Oh Yes, HUMANS you are supposed to actually follow the links I have added to this post. It is to help educated YOU.

  I am not doing this for my health but wealth send the DIAMONDS to:
