    I predict that Mrs and Mr Brown are going to take Paddington home with them. I think that they will give him a shower because he is smelly and they will let him rest with some nice food.

    I thought this because Mrs Brown thought that it was sad of a little bear being all alone at the train station called Paddington station. When they were talking to Paddington they thought that they could name him Paddington after the station.
