I borrowed one of their disabled scooters - you could have done that too and we could have had races!

Hi All,

Had a lovely time at Monkey World.  Weather was good to us too.  I think we were the last of the Mankies to leave at 4pm, when it just started to drizzle.   

Nice to see those that did turn up.  Enjoyed chatting to BikerGran.  Her grandchildren and mine seemed to hit it off and they enjoyed playing in the big play area. 

Hopefully the date of next year's visit will be back to normal and more Mankies will be able to come along. It will soon be adoption time again.  End of this month I think. 

Hopefully see you there next time Stinkey.  You, me and BikerGran can race on the scooters and the rest can bet on us.

Didn't take many photos, just these few.

Here is the Manky paver that Andy and Taz bought a couple of years ago.  Looking a bit faded now.  Lots of feet go over it though.  I have included a reference point for those who wish to find it next time.  It is in the group of pavers from where the photo was taken.   It is at the beginning of the walkways so not too far before you find it.





I also have a paver there.  It says JJ and Jinxster, the latter being the name of my trike.  As it is a Q plate I could name the taxation make and model, so it was Jinxster (based on my surname) and Liberty for the model.  It gives me a buzz to see it on the tax disc!  I am easily pleased.  Smiley  It is just a bit further on from the MMM one and just in front of the bench in the previous picture.



My Monkeys:


I then took these pictures of my grandchildren and it was only when I saw them in thumbnail mode that I realised what they spelt.  How's that for coincidence!
