Kubella getting a pat from a Chelsea pensioner
Kubella in line with some of the other elephants..
Well, Kubella is currently at wait for it...£4251 on the online auction site http://www.givinglots.co.uk, with one whole week before she is auctioned at the live Grand Auction.
I visited her on Friday to make her toes twinkled, the small missing piece in her tail was fixed and she had a polish ahead of the auction in the grounds of the Royal Chelsea Hospital.
Whilst I was there, she had many admirers with wonderful comments like 'She's my favourite, out of all the elephants'. One couple even asked if they could take her home on the coach (they live in Bristol). Kubella did twinkle in the wonderful sunshine and seems to be enjoying being with the herd.
I wonder where she live after the auction? By the seaside somewhere, someone's mansion gardens, in a shop or even in a lobby, maybe she will have to get a passport and end up somewhere else in the world...well not long now, before Kubella's great journey ends!
