There is a very sad little girl who really needs this particular Ted back.

So people of boards can u help locate a duplicate. Please see pic of ted teddington attached.

Always buy a spare beloved toy, OP. You have failed this child. Try again and report back.

Awww, I know the heartbreak of losing a beloved Teddy Bear. It was Summer of '77, a weekend trip to the seaside with the family was meant to be the highlight of the season. However after a pleasant frolic in the tide, we went to get some ice cream and when we came back to our towels, there was my Teddy, GONE!!!

The tears flowed, the ice cream melted and then out of the corner of my eye, behind an overflowing bin I spotted Teddy..... on top of a Cindy Queen Ballerina Doll :eek: The bástard couldn't keep his fuzzywuzzy in his pants for one weekend away. I was sickened and walked away from my best friend, never to see him again. Don't know what ever happened to him, don't care. Enjoy Lahinch ya randy git.

But anyway to solve your problem OP, google a pic of said toy, photoshop the Eiffel Tower behind it and tell your daughter he's on holidays.

Now I'm not advocating spamming but I believe you only need 11 more posts on boards to post URLs.

You could just make 11 constructive posts. Might be quicker than getting a mod to help you out, you never know.

Are constructive posts allowed in After Hours?

Time to get yourself a twitter/facebook campaign.

Tweet https://twitter.com/TescoIrl and ask them if they could locate any that might still be in a warehouse somewhere...
