Is This Worcestershire? Or the Maasai Mara?198 katseluaWe couldn't catch the Highland cow or Highland steer having tried everything. We finally called the West Midland Safari Park and Bob Lawrence, their Head Warden, came out to assist us "dart" the cattle. This photo was taken in sunny Worcestershire on a December afternoon --- not the Mara.

Bob Lawrence Using Air Rifle To Shoot the Steer207 katseluaThis is actually the moment that the dart hit the steer (UK302940500041). You can see him losing his step on the right of the photograph, with the red tip of the dart showing. Bob Lawrence, from the West Midland Safari Park, has just fired the air rifle.

The Mine in Dartmouth223 katseluaThere is a big red mine on the sea front in Dartmouth with a coin slot. The brass plaque says that all funds go to The Shipwrecked Fisherman & Mariners Royal Benevolent Society, but the mine seemed full. As the mine is about a meter in diameter --- if it's full of coins it must be holding a treasure trove.

Craig By The Park Sheraton Hotel - Thanksgiving 19661841 katseluaI had a term paper to write --- I was a freshman at Renesselaer --- so I borrowed a typewriter in the hotel's office. They used it for typing telegrams (remember telegrams?) so all of the lower-case letters had been filed off. I had to type my paper ALL IN CAPITAL LETTERS. Note the Horn and Hardart automat on the corner in the background.
