    Oh dear, I've become part of the subject of a zoochat thread :rolleyes:.

    Keep an eye out for us all and be sure to say hello. Depending on what time your wife's experience finishes maybe you can tag onto the group at some point? (providing there's room)

    I think she wants to go elsewhere in the afternoon. Cinema at Cheshire Oaks, then back to a nice meal down by the river in the evening.

    Unfortunately there won't be any "tagging on" in any of the exhibits as our numbers are under strict control, but it's not a problem if we're walking through the zoo or in the pub.

    There are now only a couple of places left on the reptile/amphibian tour with Richard, so please be quick if you're still sitting on the fence.

    When all the places are taken we'll be running a reserve list, so don't be discouraged if/when that happens.

    Due to a cancellation, we once again have two places remaining on the reptile/amphibian tour. This is a free event, so please let me know ASAP if you'd like to attend.

    I really cannot understand why anybody would pull out of something like this,at this late stage without a very good reason like a death or something in the family!!

    All the places have now been taken on the reptile and amphibian walk. If you'd still like to come, send me a PM and your name will be added to a reserves list.

    I hope to see everyone on Saturday!

    I believe so unless we have changed it just to confuse people without telling them or the zoo!!

    q

    Does that mean that children will not be allowed on Walks & Talks in the future? Or am I jumping to conclusions....

    Jumping to conclusions,SMR and myself have had a chat with a few member's of staff within the zoo and we are going to try something different,and see if that stops people pulling out at the last minute,and as a result of the new way proof of age should not be an issue!!!All I will say is wait and see don't think you will have any problems with the new plan!!
