Paddington 3, page 9
I hope Mrs. Bird is enjoying her stay with you, and that she’s ticked a few things off her new “to-do” list. She told me that she was going to install a mirror ball and disco lights in the main hall. I can just imagine her as the Home’s DJ . . .
As for me, I think I made the right decision. Mr. Gruber was right when he told me you can have “mixed feelings” about where you’re from. But maybe that’s okay because I suppose I am a bit of a mix. Part London, part Peru, a sprinkle of El Dorado . . . but most of all—a whole lot of Brown.
Love from,
Paddington
(also known as ROOOOARRRR Brown)
