Looking at the life and times of Christopher Robin as he grew up in London and then in Hartfield on the Ashdown Forest. Was he a happy child and adult or did that small English teddy over-shadow his life; did Christopher Robin feel that his father had climbed upon his shoulders leaving him with nothing but the empty fame of being his son and did he ever find happiness? A look at English life from the 1920s through the eyes of A.A. Milne and his son and, of course, Winnie-the-Pooh. The talk includes a few quotes and poems from Pooh with enchanting slides of the Ashdown Forest and of the family. Please book on-line at friendsofashdownforest.co.uk
