    My very impressive list:

    Fossil

    That's it. Fossil is a friend I introduced to ZooChat.

    I just want to point out that 18 months ago TLD used the phrase 'strong skew towards male members' and nobody made any jokes about it.

    In the last year I have been demoted from @ShonenJake13's Would Like To Meet list. I doubt the fact that I have pulled out of three separate meet-up plans we've had has anything to do with it!

    My own, short, list:

    @Mike11 (although I didn't know it until after)
    @Lemurs (once by accident at St Pancras when he had just got back from Madagascar!)
    @Zooish
    @devilfish
    @lintworm
    @Vision
    @CGSwans
    @Deer Forest

    Unfortunately, due to the time constraints of my time travelling, several other plans to meet people have fallen through (including the oligatory @Brum snub). There are a lot of people on here I'd like to spend a day at the zoo with, although which zoo would depend on which zoochatter!

    I personally haven’t met any although I’m at zoos 4 days a week, with my camera .
    As a singer in a Take That tribute group, if you see a blond lad with cameras singing to Gary Barlow / Take That songs whilst snapping away there’s a good chance it’s me !

    You’re still very much in my list, but due to me not coming to China anytime soon and, from what I understand at least, you not coming to Europe anytime soon, others that I am more likely to see soon have been raised :) you’re still in the top 10 however!!

    Do you like zoos? Yes.
    Do I? Yes.

    I sure we´ll be fine. :D

    Or as that song by Edmundo Ros goes, “Do you like the sun bear? I like it too, and if you like the sun bear, I love you!”

    Oh, that was Samba, not sun bear.

    I enjoy both Samba and Sun Bears so I guess, we´re set.

    I removed the whole discussion on snubbing Brum and the weird ways zoochatters talk to a new thread in the zoo cafe:

    Don't really think that was necessary, as it did follow on directly from the topic :p but no matter.
