NORTHAMPTON SAFARI

A few years back we had the Lions in Northampton, this year we have all sorts of animals. I took pictures of the ones I liked and the ones that are just gob stopping amazing, you will understand when you see them....

There are lots of Rhino's around but I really like this one of all of them...
t'other side...
This makes me laugh each time I see it,
the statue in the background is of a shoe last
with a boy and girl on top of it -
Northampton used to be famous for shoe making....
 I know someone just like this that is why I laugh...
 Great cause...
 L'il Yo'man.....
hahaha see description below picture...
 I couldn't find his big brother at all...
 Just what is it?????
 Saw this on the Market Square and thought - what the heck is that?
 Now you know....
 paws...
 sorry about the reflections...
 these two old dears really made me laugh -
cos the one in the black jacket said to her pal -
"What a waste of wool!"
 hubby said they should have used non reflective glass...
 Brilliant aren't they...
 You can almost hear that ROAR...
 just amazing...
