This arrived today from ‘Yendys Notlaw’. The mystery of Sydney and his lookalike in the other upside-down world (or is it a back-to-front world?) is getting deeper…

Dear Coral

In our world we think it is very funny that you have someone that looks like me.  

From the photographs I have seen he does look a little older than me, and not so well kept.

My secret to looking so young and clean is that I eat lots of green vegetables, and always wash and do my teeth every night and morning.
 
One of the things I would really like to do while I am on a visit to your world is to go down to Antarctica and see where Sydney has been having all his wonderful adventures.

I did hear from a friend that you will be going back down to the ice in a few months’ time. Could I please come with you?

I will be no trouble and still have time to get all the right gear and pack my case. Please say “yes”.

On my visit to Saint Stephen’s on the Gold Coast in June, we proclaimed a special day for all toys.

Students came with their toys wrapped in scarves and hidden in crumb-filled corners of their backpacks; some had to get a lift, their toys being rather too large to walk on their own.

Even some teachers and the wonderful staff of the library carried in their special friends… and each had a tale to tell.

As you can see in this photo, the toys all got along very well indeed… and the stories we made up for them made us all laugh.

I hope the toys will be asked back again soon!
