Reminds of a day out in Hampshire 30 years ago,and someone was dressed up as a kangaroo showing people where to park
I’ve often wondered where a job like that is advertised,because I’ve never seen one like it at the job centre

Mate, that was an actual kangaroo - first choice always goes to actual animals
Admittedly authenticity comes at the cost of occasional eaten children where wolverines and hyaenas are concerned, but still, not much makes it to job-centres…
FWIW, sounds like Paultons Park think it’s ‘Peppa Pig World’ now…
Terrible zoo - great bacon sarnies…

Think it was in the shopping centre at somewhere like new Milton,that’s what made it more weirder as it had nothing to do with anything going on

In the distance, is Brentor Church in Devon.
The two railway lines are:
Left - the single track branch line, is the ex GWR Plymouth to Launceston line, via Tavistock and the Lydford.
Right: the double track line, is the ex LSWR main line, which ran from Plymouth to Exeter, (and on to London Waterloo), via Tavistock, Lydford, Okehampton
The LSWR had a station at Tavistock North, Brentor and shared the station at Lydford.
At Lydford, the two lines diverged, with the GWR line deviating to Launceston, and the LSWR continuing to Okehampton.
Photo is believed to be by Trevor Owen from 1958/59

The two lines ran next to each other through Lydford station. There was some rivalry between the two operators & their crews. Apparently it wasn’t unusual for one crew to fuck the other up by throwing a large bucket of water onto the other’s fire just as the first train was leaving!

I was looking at something on YouTube about Chrissie Hynde and as internet rabbit holes go it lead me to this
Chrissie played one gig with them before she was sacked.
I knew Paul Halford (Johnny Moped) vaguely when I lived in South Croydon.
He was often to be found sitting on a park bench staring into space, mostly on his own occasionally with his wife Brenda. (A strange woman!)
Her main job seemed to be to come and collect him and take him home.
I had a few rambling conversations with him when stoned (me not him), I remember that even at the time they didn’t make any sense.
