| A very happy Steparoo last summer |
We sadly shake our heads sceptically - Steparoo is such a conscientious girl she'd never leave us like this, with no ditty to let us know her whereabouts. Oh no.
Our much loved fine furry hop-stepping friend is missing, and the only signs of her are some rather large kangaroo footprints outside of shopping centres and train stations all across the North West (or so we're told). Have you seen these giant footprints anywhere near you? Please let us know if you have!
We miss her and her little joey sorely here at the Smokefree North West offices. Every time we hear some clodhopping along the corridor (try as she might, Steparoo's not, ahem, particularly delicate on her sizable feet) we rush from our desks only to find it's just the builders who are in the building at the moment sprucing it up. It's probably the most eager to prise ourselves away from our desks and our tenacious hard work we've ever been.

We last saw her yesterday for a brew - and because it was such a super busy day we didn't notice she'd gone till her usual exclamations of "BINGO!" (as she thinks of another winning idea to help mums and dads take Take 7 Steps Out from their homes to protect their little 'uns from secondhand smoke) weren't ringing around the office scaring the wits out of us.
We can only hope that in her excitement about the coming spring and all this lovely sunshine we've been having that she's earnestly taken herself off to champion taking Take 7 Steps Out - as it's so much easier when the weather's bright and beautiful.
So if you see her, or have any clues as to where she might be - she's roughly 2m tall, very cuddly with a golden syrup-brown coloured fur, turquoise blue Seven Steps Out tee shirt, and of course very, very big feet - please let us know. And if you've pinched her, please give her back!

Maybe she has realised that righteous hectoring of the general public is not the way forward - and gone to get a proper job.
ReplyDeleteMaybe her taxpayer funding has been cut because times are hard and spending money on telling adults what to do is no longer viable.
Maybe she has been turned into kangaroo steaks. They're very tasty. Here's hoping.
last seen serving behind the cigarette counter in the corner shop.
ReplyDeleteIs that bacca in her pouch?
ReplyDeleteI have heard that kangaroo meat is going down a storm in the north west. It's delicious smoked too.
ReplyDeleteMaybe she joined the ciggy busters from Medway and then was quietly despatched by an irate smoker. There's probably a mound of freshly dug earth somewhere on the North Downs
