My pet elephant

His very narrow face

His cute tail made of a piece of woo

Standing with his box and key

The side of his box says "Watch him amble along"

Even 65 years the clockwork mechanism still works and he still walks well (better than me). I wish I could show you but I don't know how to load a vdeo of him ambling along onto here

Jumbo is cute isn't he?
