You never know what you might see….

Who would have thought we’d see a unicyclist on the streets of Bearsted! Here she is. And what an interesting story. We stopped for a very enjoyable chat learning about her life and ambitions.

She joined a circus, https://www.jamesrichardscircus.co.uk/, last year, travelling the country, really enjoying the open road and living in different places every few days. At first she was a general dogsbody, putting up the tent, setting out the acts, selling tickets and so on.

Then she was promoted to sound and lights. Knew nothing about any of that. Now she’d decided to create her own act and is learning the unicycle with the help of her mum. Good luck to her.

I asked if she knew about the chap who was unicycling around the world: https://www.worldunicycletour.com/.

I didn’t mention the jock strap: as in an infamous line in a Reggie Perrin story where he remarked that a smell was worse than that of a “Bolivian unicyclist jock strap” I’ll leave that to your imagination: https://www.quotes.net/mquote/896731

Strange, I’ve always thought it was a Hungarian!
