Circus-y links from GG's harried editor. Pignouf's lovely Vintage Poster site (in French but you'll understand, trust us). Also Vintage Circus tumblr, is here. An intriguing post at The Clever Pup (August 2009) about Carnivàle Lune Bleue. Highly recommended reading. A new film starring Jane Birkin & Sergio Castellito, Around a Small Moutain...opening soon near you. Finally, for children of all ages, read about ancient Roman leisure activities on the BBC - Primary History page. ciao-meow/The Ringmistress
