So I was in the West End buying yet more skeins of Rowan colourscape and thought I’d have my lunch in the park behind John Lewis and wow! Elephants! I love elephants!

Use to go to Regents Park Zoo and cry with them.

The Late Great Jim Robson .

Then one day a tragic accident  – the elephant keeper Jim Robson died, when he tripped and was stepped on by one of the elephants. Jim had been the elephant keeper for many mnay years it was a really terrible shock for all the zoo workers, I remember going to the zoo the next day. Really sad.  After a 170 year tradition, the elephants were bused off to whipsnade….never to return.

Went on a coach once to Whipsnade to see how they were getting on..they had forgotten me already.another elephant
