Chessington

I'm going to the zoo tomorrow,
Zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow;
I'm going to the zoo tomorrow,
And we can stay all day.

Actually, I went yesterday, and Chessington isn't really that much of a zoo anymore...

Had a good day, though, but a bit like Thorpe Park last year, it was a bit of a dissapointment. The place needs a bit of upkeep, and a lick of paint.

Also some of the rides were poor copies of better rides at Disneyland, etc.

Me and the grandmother had fun trying to decipher where all the animals were during the park's days as a zoo. "Oh, there's Burth Stub House, so the giraffes must have been over there, and there's where the little train was..."

Legoland has a lot to teach other theme parks.

Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.
