Houdini went to Scotland this morning...
I had absolutely no idea that he was leaving. I spoke to one of the keepers and she told me ‘my’ zoo was never his permanent home. I absolutely don’t know what to do with myself. For those who don’t know, I’m going to tell you all the story of how I came to know Houdini, my first ever encounter with him and a little story about each of my encounters with him....

Silent Hill Nightmare.
So I had a massive nightmare about Silent Hill last night! [[MORE]]It all started with me going to the zoo for a normal day of volunteering. Anyway, I got told I had to clean out The Studio (a place where they keep tarantulas, lizards, geckos etc. it’s just a warm room full of tropical animals) and so I did. Anyway, there are two doors you can go out of to exit The Studio, though it...

Proud times.
So for 5 years now I’ve had this ridiculous irrational fear about this silly YouTube video… however it got to a point where it was controlling my life. I was too scared to go downstairs on my own. I’d have at least 2 or 3 nightmares a week. And tonight, for the first time since I first saw it 5 years ago I watched it. Not once, but 10 times in hopes that I could finally...

[[MORE]]I dreamt last night that Corky was moved to ‘my’ zoo despite the fact that it’s completely illegal to keep captive cetaceans in the UK. Anyway despite how great ‘my’ zoo is, they kept her in this HORRIBLE tiny tank that she could just about move in. I mean, smaller and more shallow than Lolita’s tank!!! And I didn’t know whether to be over the moon...
