General Discussion / Re: Man killed by Tiger

Certainly he must have been disturbed.
There's footage online showing him sitting in the enclosure and pointing and wagging his finger at the tiger when it paws him . At first you can tell the tiger's thinking 'who the hell are you' and is more curious than aggresive. 
Then clearly it must have mauled him.

Quote from: Dextrous63 on Yesterday at 10:08:18 PMJust looked it up Mups.  Seems that 25-30% die of natural causes, suicide or other non punishment related incidents (I guess that mean accidents or fights or attacks 🤷🏻�♂️)
I guess that saves the authorities having to do it.
It seems all wrong though.

The Chat Room / Musical Memories
Last post by Mups - Yesterday at 10:53:00 PM
There was a programme on telly tonight about all the old music from the 70's.    

I didn't think I would enjoy it,  but surprisingly,  I did, it was full of memories of my younger days.
It was good to  see and hear all the old stars of yesteryear again, who  most of us probably grew up with.   
Proper songs, with nice words, and a lot of love songs.

Who remembers some of these people:

A very young Mick Jagger,  Rod Stewart,  Paul McCartney, a young Eton John,  Leo Sayer, Brotherhood of Man,  ShowWaddyWaddy, The Walker Brothers,  Demis Roussos, The Four Seasons,  Dolly Parton,  Johnny Mathis -   (still alive and 91 now),   and many more lovely old song and faces.


Can you remember what you were up to 50 years ago,  in 1976?

Every day Bert had more aches and pains
Hair falling out and varicose veins
Of course he had the warmest heart
Was that the most interesting  part?! 
Eve thought he was going insane!



Fish & Chips every Friday night
It was nearly all batter, but tasted alright
Mable & Bill were always first
After having a beer to quench their thirst

A man got into the Tiger enclosure at a Zoo hear Doncaster today.
He was then attacked,  and air lifted to hospital, where he died.

I can only think perhaps he was deeply depressed, and wanted to end it maybe?   
Awful, isn't it.

I fully agree, Morty.

Good question, Dex.

No problems JB.  Am surprised they operated on the same day.  When I broke my wrist, I had to wear a plaster for a week to let the swelling go down before having the op.

The consultant who looked after me was an Iranian woman.  She told me not to worry as she wasn't going to blow me up 🤣🤣

Far be it from me to offer advice, but I strongly suggest that, when it gets to that stage, Marge takes pain killers an hour or so before her physio appointments.  They're monsters, those people!!!
