If anyone has any idea where we can buy a new one, PLEASE let me know. This was given to Amna when she was only about a month old and noonoo’s been with her ever since. She’s going to celebrate her 14th birthday in a couple of months and it would be great if we could give her a new one… not that she would ever give this one up!
We can’t remember who the manufacturer is. All we remember is that the tag on him said that his name was “Bruno” and as she couldn’t pronounce it properly, she dubbed him “noonoo” and it stuck.
It might have been Aplause but I could very well be mistaken. We think he was bough in the UK. He was given Amna by a friend who left Bahrain a long time ago (Marion Hickey are you still around?!) and she most probably lives in the UK now. She used to work for Gulf Air at that time (1989) as cabin crew. Marion if you see this, you’re Amna’s star number ONE!

Oh there is no way that she will give this one up for anything! It would just be nice to show her what a new one looks like. I remember that it was almost a completely different shape when she got it… not to mention colours and eyes etc.
