Desperately Seeking A Womble!

Wondered if anyone might be able to help with The Great Womble Hunt 2010?  My 87 year old father mentioned in passing that he would dearly love to add Tobermory to his collection.  With Christmas fast approaching, I have made it my mission to find this elusive womble.  So far have scouted around on e-bay, Hamleys, Amazon and the Windmill Museum but to no avail so thought I'd ask if any of you happened to have a long-forgotten and neglected womble in your attic?  I promise he would go to a good and loving home and am more than happy to discuss adoption fees.

It's not the step onto the train, it's the lack of lifts or escalators at Ealing stations, Greenford excepted (well it's got an up escalator).

They probably can't get on the tube train as the step is too high!

Many thanks for the e-bay 'heads up', Alan - much appreciated.

Well you don't see many in Ealing do you?

There are some Tobermorys on ebay at this moment.And before anyone says so, Tobermory is a proper noun and is pluralized by adding s and not monkeyed about with ie.Incidentally why is the Womble Pass (bus pass for old biffers) so-called?
