    I am back on the dodgems - age 7 or 8 I believe.

    This was Wicksteed Park - so I think the dodgems on the previous movie might have been Woburn Abbey instead.

    Another year older so I got to drive myself this time.

    School uniform was still our Sunday best for trips like this - I remember my grey school jumper and my grey short trousers.


    Then off to London Zoo in Regent's Park.

    There was a rhinoceros looking bored, and an elephant happy to be fed.

    The penguins obviously made an impression on me as I became a penguin catcher 15 years later.

    And a bear begging for treats, and zebras playing around and giraffes standing tall.

    There's a boat on Regent's Canal, and then the bright lights of Piccadilly Circus.

    I haven't been to a zoo for many a year. I guess there is less feeding the animals and more Health & Safety these days.

    Happy days, happy memories...
