Following the recent news about our beloved Bluebell, we have decided to raise a contribution to Battersea Cats & Dogs trust in her honour. We are blessed to have been enjoying our Beans (many of us for free) down the airwaves for four years now - we wanted to take this opportunity to give back and show some love and appreciation for Henry at this time, and for everything the Beans continue to share with us!

Bluebell, Bluebell,

Soft and gentle and wise and kind

Bluebell, Bluebell,

Sturdy paws and silky thighs

Bluebell (She's a cat)

There she flies, like a furry star

Classic and stylish, like a vintage car

You're gonna go far

Bluebell, Bluebell

Take me away on a magical trip

Bluebell, Bluebell

To the Milky Way on your furry spaceship

Bluebell (She's a cat)

I'll feed you meat biscuits upon the moon

We'll defeat a giant worm - like in Dune

I'll see you there soon.

Blooberlina and Blooberama,

Blooberlama and Blooberuma,

Blooberata and Bloomerata, Blooberata-

You'll swipe off the faces of our enemies

You'll toy with the corpses of anyone who defies our galactic rule.

It's cruel to be kind, but mainly to be cruel.

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Some information about the charity:

‘Battersea will always be here for every dog and cat.

Battersea takes dogs and cats in, gives them the expert care they need and finds them new homes that are just right for them.

They help pet owners make informed choices, provide training advice, and campaign for changes in the law.

And they help other rescue centres and charities at home and abroad because they want to be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need Battersea.’
