I narrowed him down to either rhesus monkey or Japanese snow monkey. I'd be interested to know your criteria for this conclusion. I'd also be intrigued as to your findings on our friendly northern Bear.... I looked at all the photos of monkey species & his profile pic looks most like those 2 (very similar-looking) species. I can't say that what is known of his habitat or behaviour match those of any catalogued monkey though! BurlyBeaR's profile pic is unfortunately no help for attempted ursine species identification.

With no clues in Burlys profile pic I think I will have to plump for Spectacled Bear.

But surely steroids bulk you up, and Paddington is already quite chunky. How big are you suggesting BurlyBeaR is?

Always thought Theatre Monkey's profile photo was Gail from Coronation Street!
Someone once referred to Wayne Rooney as a gorilla and had to apologize, when a 150kg Silverback tells someone to apologize they have little choice.

How big are you suggesting BurlyBeaR is? ^Take the proverbial outhouse door, double it and add two feet on both ends (one literal, other measurement). More or less. Goodness, more disrespect from our furry friend! (He's right though, I'm a big prospect, but very cute with it )

Going back to the original title of the thread (well, almost), at the Tkts booth in Leicester Square today, a man, his wife and two children were being told repeatedly that kids aged 4 and 8 would not be allowed in to a show where the recommended age is 10 or over. Man wasn't having it, insisting his little angels would behave perfectly. Ticket seller also not having it, saying that content wasn't suitable for young children and even if she sold the tickets, the kids wouldn't be allowed into the theatre. She offered them Aladdin at £72 a pop! Unfortunately I didn't get to see the outcome (or find out what show it was that Dad wanted to take them to), as they were so long at their window that I'd moved up, past them and done my own transaction while they were still going strong.

It's got to be Our Ladies...hasn't it, surely.

Just ban it and put the seats on sale, on line, on the morning of the performance. That way everyone who can get to the perf has a chance to buy a ticket instead of the privileged few who can get to the theatre in the morning. If I could buy tickets with a credit or debitcard I would but I have neither. It's bad enough I can't go see shows where you can only book online or over a phone let alone having dayseats online only.

After reading this topic carefully I suggest everyone not liking dayseatters here just stop attending theatres in London when I'm 2500 km away and can't make it either with dayseats option or without it. Seriously, people living cople of hours from London and complaining you can't get dayseats, let's change places?
