These are the adorable photos of Paddington Bears and other cuddly toys that have been causing "mischief" at Buckingham Palace.
Thousands of the toys were left as tributes at the palace and in royal parks following the sad death of the Queen in September at the age of 96.
She became forever linked with the little bear in June during her Platinum Jubilee celebrations when she performed a sketch with him revealing she kept marmalade sandwiches in her handbag.
Upon her sad death several months later, cuddly Paddingtons were placed in tribute to her at royal residences across the country.
They were later carefully collected and cleaned and for the past few weeks have made themselves at home in both Buckingham Palace and Clarence House.
The Royal Family tweeted the sweet snaps saying: "We've had a lovely stay at Clarence House and Buckingham Palace (doing our best to keep out of mischief…) Looking forward to arriving at our new homes next week!"
Next week, Queen Consort Camilla will deliver the bears to Barnardo's nursery in London, where they will be given new owners.
In 2016, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth passed the patronage of Barnardo’s to the then Duchess of Cornwall.
During the visit on Thursday, Camilla will attend a special teddy bears picnic, where she will join children supported by Bow Nursery and Barnardo’s staff for the picnic, alongside key characters from the world of Paddington.
Paddington film cast members Hugh Bonneville and Madeleine Harris, who play Mr Brown and Judy Brown, and Paddington author Michael Bond’s daughter Karen Jankel, for whom the original stories were written, will come together for marmalade sandwiches on the day.
Last month, a new photo of Camilla with some of the bears was released to mark the donation and to coincide with the 64th anniversary of the publication of the first Paddington Bear book.
Thousands of tributes – from flowers to teddy bears – were left in London and Windsor as a tribute to the Queen following her death.
Some even left marmalade sandwiches in sweet tributes to Her late Majesty.
In central London, many were left at the two official tributes areas in Green Park and Hyde Park.
Afterwards, the Royal Parks charity, with the help of Shire horses and almost 200 volunteers, began sensitively clearing the tribute gardens.
The teddy bears collected during this process have joined those left as tributes on the Long Walk outside Windsor Castle in being donated to Barnardo’s children’s services.
