Notes from LandingPadLondon:
Who doesn’t love an afternoon at the zoo? Now, if you only have a few days in town, and you want to see ye olde historic London, the zoo may not be your priority. But like zoos all over the world, the London Zoo is truly lovely and a great afternoon activity. Be sure to check out the tortoise exhibition. Dirty Dirk the tortoise, named for the character Dirk Diggler from Boogie Nights, has been unleashed amongst the females. Being described as amorous, this big guy knows not the concept of modesty.
From the Blog’s Mouth:
Here at LandingPadLondon, we believe in the beauty and the truth of the blog.
“Ah, London Zoo, surely the perfect place to break someone’s heart? Yes, they’ll be a bit upset but then you can just point nearby and say; “Ooo Look! A monkey!” Unfortunately if you’re there on the weekend the place is teaming with children. And let’s face it, if you’ve got time to go to London Zoo on a weekday you’ve got bigger problems than an over emotional soon-to-be ex girlfriend. Breaking-up with a girl when she’s surrounded by children is tantamount to kicking her in the ovaries. It’s just cruel.”
