« WINGMIRROR ISSUES | Main | HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONOLA14.CO.UK! » July 12, 2004GREAT BRITISH CIRCUSAn English summer of never-ending rain and dark, gloomy clouds is upon us. On the other hand, camels live in the desert. If I was reading this and not writing it, I too would think that these are two absolutely unrelated sentences and the author was completely and utterly bonklers, but speaking from today's experience, I can assure you that they are not. As I drove back from football, just short of half eight this evening, I noticed a huge tent surrounded by several strange-looking animals in one of the local fields, I was momentarily confused and thought my lack of fitness had caused hallucinations. But no, the strange-looking animals were (you've probably guessed it by now) camels grazing merrily in the damp pastures, recently drenched by yet another summer downpour and it was only when I saw an advertisement loosely tied to a gatepost by the side of the road that I finally registered the evidence before me. Yes, the Great British Circus has arrived. But camels? British? Hmmm, just not cricket. Posted by jonola14 at July 12, 2004 10:51 PM Subscribe!Comments Bonklers. What a tremendous word. Posted by: Wibbler at July 13, 2004 8:52 AM I have just read a good many of the archived events and am in complete stitches. Chicagos and the old birds, I am clearly having withdrawal symptoms. I haven't seen a smashing blouse in the whole of NZ... Posted by: Mark at July 13, 2004 1:06 PM Speaking of out of place animals, did you know that Australia has the largest number in the world of wild donkeys? Strange but true...
