today at work, you couldnt script it lol

[Dan]

what a laugh today has been. i got phoned last night to pop into our yard for the details on todays job. Now those that know me will see the humour more so, but the reason they wouldnt tell me before hand was i had to drive a small machine inside the monkey cage at the zoo lol .

Yep you read it right, needless to say we had a bigger audience than the poor monkeys at times who were locked in their glass house glaring at us out in the sunshine and fresh air lol . Aswell as the small monkeys we had a monster gorilla just across the way on his little 'island' giving us the evils first thing (prob noise of machine) but i had left my phone in the van so didnt get that pic though. The comical value of the day is almost unrivalled

Anyway as we were inside we had a wander around and i took a few shots

which came out ok considering

the machine and 'our' cage
