Yippee, Zippos is in town but I have not seen any of the flyers for discount tickets around the area. I'm wandering what the cheapest way to get tickets is.

Looking at the website children are ?11 and adults ?14 if going for the front view so for 2 adults and 2 children that is quite alot plus the online booking fee. So I'm wandering if anyone has seen the flyers they usually have around and what the prices advertised on those are please. If anyone can let me know that would be great.

Thanks, liz

Ah the annual pilgrimage to Zippos - love it and v excited for taking our brood apart from Norman and his budgies with the inevitable line 'these birds make the money, these birds' (pointing to the assistants) 'spend the money'. Never mind the animal rights activists who like to protest each year we need some sister power to get this joke out of his routine ...

If anyone's still looking the cafe on the Rye had some vouchers .... well hidden just the far side of the till where they keep water jug etc. That was a couple of days ago though. On vouchers restricted view tickets for example with the voucher - ?5 for kids and ?7 for adults. Possibly similar prices to online costs but you can use them at the ticket office and avoid online booking fees.

KikiMac - We hit the 3pm Sunday show and yes the bird joke was missing - hooray. However, it was left to the otherwise fantastic clown to introduce some 1970s inappropriate humour during the dads' section making signs that one dad was homosexual as he sat behind another, rather than at the side of him, and continued his hugely not funny gestures for the next few mins - doh! Other than that was fantastic and a full to busting house added to a great atmosphere.

Oh it was great but I agree about the clown bit with his gestures. My other half got picked at the 12 o clock show yesterday to go down and participate in that act.

I like Norman's ending comment each year: 'You're never too young, or too old, or too cool to enjoy Zippo's Circus'. I think he should also add 'or too posh' ;-)


Mrs TP did you know that Norman was on This Is Your Life in the 1990s? There is a link to it from his Wikipedia page. Yes, I do need to get out much more.

    • There is a large amount fresh veg available in the green book cage outside the copleston church,sprouts,spring onions,potatoes,parsnips and bread rolls,pop down shame to see it get wasted          
    • On the original topic - there was more of this on Whateley Road today. Same place but the other side of the road. Could be the same dogwalker as for the other nearby roads?   I don't have a dog - but would have thought it's hard for owners not to notice when a dog is doing it in the middle of a pavement? 
    • Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close (Boots the chemist was a shoplifters favourite over the years) but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area.  Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers. Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. The security guards are very nonchalant. The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items.  The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.         
    • Maybe I'm behind the times, but in the old days if you went to a pub for charity fundraiser you'd have a quiz or karaoke and you'd be chipping in for a new scanner at your local hospital or maybe sending some poor kiddie for some cancer treatment abroad. Nowadays you can roll down to the Old Nun's head in Nunhead and tip your money into a bucket for some sad young woman to go a private surgeon and have her breasts sliced off -  as if that was going to be some kind of life-saving treatment!  Not only that, she's publicising her Valentine's crowdfunder with a funny ha ha (not) cartoon of a girl (see pic) with a hypodermic in her bum and calling it 'Valen-Tits-off'. Jesus wept. Whatever happened to hearts and flowers? It's so unbelievably sick. I'm a woman, I've pretty much still got all the woman-bits intact. Periods and puberty weren't much fun, I was bullied at school, wondered about my sexuality and boys and spots and the rest of it, got called a lezzer by the class cow, but I got through it. And I would no more think that cutting bits off a girl was the solution to her misery than I would put my teenage daughter on a diet if she was diagnosed with anorexia. I can't be the only person who finds the pub - and its publicity material - very VERY offensive?
