Interested, did a bit of research and came across the name George Lockhart. I remember him as a child in Manchester from going to Belle Vue Circus as a Christmas treat. <br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_Vue_Zoo#Belle_Vue_Circus <br /><br />We lived just a mile down the road. Belle Vue was quite an amazing place, it had a zoo, fairground, concert halls, a lake and a pub where I saw in later life, James Booker, one of New Orleans greatest piano players. Also the best speedway team ever, Belle Vue Aces. So a chance visit to Leamington brought back lots of memories. We've lived in Worcester for the last 20something years.<br /><br />Small world!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
