Thanks for the sweet comments on Nanette. Just to explain-when I wrote her babies were gone I meant not living with her anymore. Her mates are all dead. The film is a strange and moving one. The youtube preview gives a good idea of what it is like. I felt so sorry for her. One of the visitors said that in Borneo there is a saying about Orang Utans that they can talk, but they choose not to so they don't have to do any work.

Postcards
If you can't have the real thing then a postcard is the next best thing. My postcard frame has been newly arranged since the visit to the exhibition on Saturday.

Sweet collection of lovely lady cards.
RE: Nanette, thanks for putting her story out there. Some people can be so numb to the dignity of the rest of the world.
Postcard frame is a nice idea
Lovely collection of postcards.
Lovely postcards, the V and A is one of my favourite places in the world.
Re yesterday's post: when I was at uni we were sent to a zoo to observe gorillas for part of the course. I hated every depressing minute and am a firm believer that many animals should not be paraded in front of the public. (Though I understand the need for conservation)
It is so sad to see these animals being kept in enclosures for the 'entertainmant' of the public!
I like your postcard frame and the postcards in it.
