:clap::clap::clap: A delightful double pangram circus indeed!:-D
The enchantment of the circus is ever green for me:http://ppavalamani.blogspot.in/2010/...op-wonder.html
Even during the last visit of our our kids on Christmas holidays we didn't miss going to the Indian Circus showing in our place! I continue to be still mesmerised!:-D
