Interesting correspondence--Animal dealer is apparently trying to convince Miss Slocombe that"Malay tigers" make great pets.

I wonder if this lady was related to Mrs Slocombe of "Are You Being Served" fame. After all, we are talking about felines.

John,
I have heard of a female animal trainer/presenter, named Belle Slocombe, from the old old days. But cant find anything about her. Was she from England or what do you know. I thought years ago it might be that Belle Slocombe who this correspondence was address to. Where are my English horse pictures?
Best wishes,
Wade

I've never heard of Belle Slocombe, but was merely attempting to be vaguely funny in my English manner.

John,
I have heard the name Belle Slocome in regards to circus/animal training, really. Your sense of humor is fine. If you had said Julia Childs, I would have connected/understood "across the water." Don't forget I am "Brit challenged." LOL My sense of humor is getting "vaguely funny", very fast, on the other hand because I don't have any liberty, long line horse pictures from Great Britain yet. LOL
Have a great day, John. Look forward to hearing from you.
