'It would've been hard to do something else, to as it were, run away from the circus and become an accountant.'

  2. I agree. Worst job I ever had in my life was working for an accountant.

  3. I cleaning up after the elephants worse than being an accountant? Tough choice.

    The texture on the skin of the elephant is as detailed as the texture of the dog's nose in your photo yesterday.

  5. I'd bet there is a good deal of cleaning up to do on that end of an elephant. Love the detail on the skin of the animal. I would rather work with an elephant than an accountant any day.

  6. This reminds me of an edition of Blue Peter when they had an elephant in the studio. It left a 'deposit' on the studio floor and it's keeper slipped in it. John Noakes was in hysterics!
