Rupert Follower's Meeting 2011 - contributed by Chris
Why's Rupert Bear at Warwick School? He's never there as a rule Once a year it's that day When all his Followers come to play 200 friends from far and wide Are there to be at Rupert's side Tony, well he's no dunce He has three jobs to do at once
And then there's John who glides about And though in charge he'll never shout And in the corner another John Who sits and checks what's going on Rupert's money is in the till It's always checked by his friend Phil Publications for our merry band That's where Alan lends a hand	Rupert's library's safe and sound That's Louise I'll be bound More work's provided by two Mikes That's the help that Rupert likes Rupert's younger friends have Val and Eddie You'll need to get your paintings ready If you're a Follower that's just great If not, join now - it's not too late!
The 28th Annual Meeting of the Followers of Rupert was held at Warwick School on August 27th 2011 and was great fun, a great day and a great success.
