News has just reached me that there has been another great escape from the Wildlife Park.

Bearing in mind that the Curraghs are already hopping with bands of escaped wallabies (Don's friends?) and that a wild boar or two may still be on the loose in the area (no prizes for naming them!) I understand that up to 5 raccoons have recently made a successful break for freedom.

Think again if you were planning to wear your Davy Crockett hat to the MGP as these rebels may respond in a less than friendly manner!

"The Raccoon is the trickster, the sly and crafty one who may appear slow, but who is quick and agile; the opponent who outsmarts his enemies, and who uses his hands like a human. The Raccoon is the survivor, who lives alongside man as if to show him that he cannot truly conquer the land. Above all, however, The Raccoon is intelligent and determined. It seems at times as if he can find his way into any closed container, or out of any cage. And he's cute, too. What more could you ask for from a species?"

Did you know that the motorcycle ridden by Steve McQueen in "The Great Escape" (1963) is the same bike ridden by Henry Winkler as Fonzie in "Happy Days" (1974)? But what make was the bike?

Sorry- that's too easy.
