A teddy Bear called Brewster II is flying off around Europe with the German air force for charity.
The bear will have to do well -- his predecessor Brewster I raised about £3,000 through flights with the RAF to British Army bases around the world.
The idea for fundraising Teddy Bears came from Val Pearce, the community fundraising manager for the Marie Curie Cancer Care charity.
The idea behind Brewster II came from Bicester's German twin town, Neunkirchen-Seelschied.
His flights will coincide with a treasure hunt Mrs Pearce is organising for entrants to drive from Bicester to Neunkirchen-Seelschied, taking in France and Belgium.
