WE WERE RACING AGAINST TIME BEFORE THE OPENING EVENT. I WAS PAINTING A JUNGLE SCENE IN THE ALLIGATOR POOL WHILST THE ALLIGATORS WERE IN SITU. THE KEEPER GAVE ME A SWEEPING BRUSH IN CASE THEY CAME TOO CLOSE. HE SAID TO BASH THEM ON THE SNOUT. VERY EXCITING JOB AS I RECALL.I ALSO REMEMBER SIR LAURENCE OLIVIER BUYING ME A DRINK IN THE SEA HORSE BAR WHEN I WAS WORKING THERE.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06071577616034238891noreply@blogger.com
