    After thinking about this (and then forgetting the thread existed!) for some time I think I'll go for:-
    Chlidonias
    vogelcommando
    Thylacine Alive (Even though he snubbed me last year... :p)
    Zooish
    Funky Gibbon

    There are others but these are the 5 that immediately spring to mind.

    for what? To snub him again? That's really rude.

    I thought you were going continental next time but if you do come back I can show you the wonderful sights of Dudley Zoo & Castle!:p

    You don't want to come to England, the wildlife is pretty lousy... ;)

    Thanks Jake, that was a surprise to see myself on anyone’s list!

    Guess it’s time for mine. Was very hard to find just 5, there were more I would like to have included!

    I think my personal list would be:

    Bongorob
    ShonenJake
    MagpieGoose
    Nisha
    TeaLovingDave

    These five I found hard to choose but thinking practically they would be the easiest to meet as all of them live in England, so here is to hopefully meeting you lot one day, that being said though there is a lot of you I want to meet in reality.

    I don't have a top five. I would just love to meet any of you wherever you are. I know that sounds real soppy but it's true.

    I'd be happy to meet anyone on here as well. People like us are few and far between.

    is that a joke about Chavs?

    If not, then as you may know I dislike tropical climates, despite always being in them, so a cold dank dreery miserable country like England would do me just fine. And you have badgers.

    Using the new Zoochat Seance app, the top five Zoochatters (let's assume they would have been Zoochatters) I'd like to meet are:

    1. Charles Darwin
    2. Jacques Cousteau
    3. Gerald Durrell
    4. Teddy Roosevelt
    5. John Muir

    If it's cold, dank and dreary you want then head to Wales! :p

    And I didn't realise a Kiwi like yourself would have heard of the chav phenomenon. :eek:

    The members that most appeal to me are the helpful ones with strong independent views and also the travel writers. So my list would include,
    zia.
    chlidonias.
    snowleopard.
    maguari and gentlelemur.
    But I also enjoy the jokey threads and appreciate the regular posters.

    To date I've had the pleasure of meeting all those on your list except Chlidonias, despite everyone being based in a different country. :)
