Metal Prints from Memory Lane
No one will believe him. But there he was, quietly fishing at Longleat
No one will believe him. But there he was, quietly fishing at Longleat, Lord Baths place in Wiltshire, when these two hippos appeared. Nasty-looking brutes. Wouldn t take the worm. Just yawned. Or laughed. Well, they re vegetarians, aren t they? Next time though, he will try an apple - and a heavier tackle. 13th August 1972

EDITORS COMMENTS
No one will believe him. But there he was, quietly fishing at Longleat, Lord Bath's place in Wiltshire, when these two hippos appeared. Nasty-looking brutes. Wouldn't take the worm. Just yawned. Or laughed. Well, they're vegetarians, aren't they? Next time though, he will try an apple - and a heavier tackle. In this print from 13th August 1972, we witness a truly extraordinary moment captured in time during the vibrant era of the 1970s. The image showcases a man indulging in his leisurely pursuit of fishing amidst the serene backdrop of Longleat's picturesque surroundings. Little did he know that his tranquil afternoon would be interrupted by the unexpected arrival of two massive hippos emerging from the depths of the water before him! These magnificent creatures with their intimidating presence refused to succumb to his bait but instead chose to amuse themselves by yawning or perhaps even laughing at his futile attempts. Undeterred by this comical encounter, our angler remains undaunted and plans for future encounters armed with an apple as bait and sturdier equipment to reel in these elusive giants. This photograph not only captures a rare sight but also encapsulates humor and danger intertwined within nature's realm – reminding us that sometimes reality can be stranger than fiction.
