Sue says: My favourite story of the week was the story about the teddy bear in the airport that finally got returned to his owner.

I can totally see myself jetting off to Japan just for this!

Cathy's Choice:
Cathy says: This week the new Budweiser ad was unveiled and it's just lovely. It makes you smile but also feel a bit teary at the same time, if that makes any sense. I don't want to say too much for anyone who hasn't watched it yet but safe to say, my heart melted.
