HOWDY, MY NAME IS BILL STRONG, I'LL BE YOUR "24 HOUR MAN", ROUTING YOU INTO THE PAST TO SEE WHAT THE CIRCUS WAS IN DAYS GONE BY. IF YOU'RE LIKE ME, AND MISS WHAT IT USED TO BE, THEN COME ON ALONG AS WE GO DOWN THE ROAD FOLLOWING THE ARROWS BACKWARDS, TO "YESTERDAY'S TOWNS"! IF YOU HAVE CIRCUS RELATED PICTURES YOU WOULD LIKE POSTED, SEND THEM TO,,,,yesterday1@verizon.net,,,,AND WE WILL TRY TO FIT THEM IN. "24 HOUR MAN" WILL HAVE THE FINAL DECISION ON POSTING.
Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!
Last night was movie night so I missed the plane to Munich, but we did get there in time for this get together. L to R are Suzanne Chipperfield, Patricia Zerbini, Pat White, Trudy Strong, Mary Chipperfield, (in gray), and Gillian Dieck. Can anyone guess what these ladies have in common.

at the risk of showing my ignorance, i'll take a wild guess (as i'm not familiar with all of these ladies) how about all 2nd generation circus performers (animal trainers)?
I don't know if it's the largest group but that's what they are, they have all worked big cats, at least four are second generation or more performers, five have worked or worked with elephants. It is an interesting group.
