Further to my entry: ‘Intrepid – 18th April 2016’ I’ve been thinking of the possibilities of a theme park for adults: a specially created environment in which all the furniture, fittings and props would be three times normal size, to allow people to re-experience some of the possibilities of childhood –to make dens out of oversized tables, grapple with gigantic cutlery you can hardly lift, find plug sockets you can almost get your fingers into, and rediscover the magic of the undersides of everyday things.

But then I realised that to make the experience real, you’d also need to populate it with 20 foot tall ‘adults’ who’d occasionally leer into view, completely filling your field of vision while booming “Aww…” And then at some point there would be the handkerchief produced from a cavernous woollen sleeve, licked, and prodded at your face with the words “Keep still!” reducing you to a bawling bundle of uncontrollable emotions.

Maybe not such a good idea then.
