I går holdt vi Skt. Hans ved Helgoland, hvor den regnbuefarvede flag svajede. Det var super hyggeligt, og vi sad lige ved siden af Bjørnebanden. Og så fik jeg et interessant indsigt i bears. Og hvad er bears så? Det er nemlig meget store, behårede mænd, der godt kan lide andre store, behårede mænd… og hvis de oven i købet har nået en vis alder, så kaldes de daddybears. Og så kan nogle af dem godt lide at gå rundt i læder. Det må så nok mest være noget, der foregår ovre i Tyskland. Jeg fandt så også ud af, at hvis jeg var deres hangaround, så ville jeg være en Guldlok. Sejt nok. Og så ville jeg lige dele lidt bjørne-lingo med jer:
