There was a big conference thing going on up in a 'big tent' on the North coast last week. Called New Horizon, this has been happening at the same place for years and years and years, and lots of people make that week their holiday week up in the Coleraine area.
One of my dad's bowling buddies was up for it, staying in his caravan. He travelled into the conference by bus, and being elderly, a bit immobile and having not very good eyesight, (I'm betting you're wondering how this man plays a competitive sport like bowls!) he asked the bus driver would he let him know when they got to the stop nearest the 'big tent'.
Sure enough, after a while on the bus, the driver shouts down "get off here mate for the big tent.''
Which dad's mate did, to find he had been dropped off at ... the circus, which also happened to be in town.

Haha! I love it! Very funny! Actually, there were two circuses (or is it circi?) up on the north coast this week. New Horizon was great!
