The Wit & Wisdom of Manly Bear

The Baron of the Bovey Basin, the King of Kingsteignton, the Knight of Newton Abbott: Manly Bear

In 2009 I began documenting the Wit & Wisdom of Manly Bear and published a Bearism every day through the year.

He was positive we wouldn't get 365 quotes out of him. Some 400 gems of his Wit & Wisdom later - Manly Bear has once again been proven wrong.

The Wit & Wisdom of Manly Bear is no longer updated daily, but quotes from the back-catalogue are still freely available. And the choicest Bearisms will still be updated through 2010.
