Today I went to the zoo! Why? Because the sun was shining, the sky blue, it was chilly and after writing all night, I needed to go on safari to take my mind off things ... and erm - the nearest game reserve is too far!

The zoo I visited is home ONLY to monkeys & apes that have been rescued from homes where they were pets or orphans who cannot be released back into the wild. Yes - some would say that zoos should not exist - but to them I say, ok - do we let these monkeys die or do we look after them the best we can? Easy answer ...

Anyway - I had fun ... and occasionally it was like looking into the mirror ... or talking to Tim!
