    A quick stop outside the airport for some fish and chips.
    And buy some extra ones for the trip.
    Onto the Greyhound Bus.
    Eat the extra fish and chips I bought.
    Arrive at Chester.
    Buy some food from a stall.
    Some more fish and chips.
    Buy extra.
    Visit Margaret.
    Eat some food as I look at her.
    Go home.
    Eat some snacks

    Now that's more like it
    Aw right. So when you eat, do you use a shovel or a conveyor belt ????

    They really are beautiful creatures. How cool to have that zoo-keeper's job for this.

    There is a video of her on Youtube. Towards the end you can see her kissing the zoo keeper.

    Chester zoo is my 'local' zoo and although they do have a young giraffe her name is Tula. Margaret was born back in 2008, had a set-back for a short while but recovered from that and was/is fine. She moved to London zoo in 2009.
    You can see part of her story here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAykBTxgaBk. (Sheba, the elephant featured in the video sadly died earlier this year aged 56.)
