Big Top Circus

[Danny]

Aren't they boring nowadays?

Used to really enjoy watching the lion tamer and the dancing elephants, and when the clowns took on the boxing kangaroo.

Circuses are all PC now so only glorified dog and pony shows - I know it was allegedly cruel to animals but you used to see parades coming into town with like a line of elephants holding tails and trunks and now kids only see 'em in the distance at a zoo.

Also used to watch trapeze and high wire with no safety net but Health & Safety won't allow it now

Got to admit, this thread was a let-down.

I was expecting lots of animal lovers to pontificate about poor little creatures and then we could have a bit of argy-bargy going on . Oh well

Re: Big Top Circus

I enjoyed watching a circus when I was a kid but well not that much these days. I guess it just happens..when you get a little bit older you know. Different views, different likes..
