Barry the Orangatang

Barry is a Londoner. Mrs Conway found him one day on Shaftsbury Avenue and he explained that he was looking for a different life. Tired of the bright lights and the big smoke, he wanted to see something new and live a little.

Mrs Conway asked if he would like to come and live in Bradford, where the sun shines relentlessly and every day is a fun day. Unsurprisingly, he jumped at the chance!

Barry, who is an adolescent Orangatang, says he enjoys listening to music and can often be found listening to his ipod. He has no family in the UK so is hoping to make a lot of new friends on his big adventure.

    Hi Bazza, I think I met one of your relatives when I was travelling through Mongolia. Check out the link to see a picture of him at the Ger Camp:

    Hi Miriam,

    How did you know! I like a wide range of different music, as you can see in the picture i am listening to Elbow but my retro favourites are Bananarama and the Monkees.

    Thanks for you comments!

    I heard Bazza whistling 'Ooo Ooo Ooo! The Funky Gibbon' by The Goodies, whilst playing in the playground, so I imagine that's on his ipod too.

    Hi Bazza, are you related to the more common Orangutans?

    I quite agree Aisha. I think Bazza's hair looks extremely slick because he brushes it so much to keep it out of his ears.

    This means he can be a good listener in class when he's learning. What do you think?

    Barry! Did you ask for my ipod or not? You must be the reason it went out of charge!

    Sorry Sean, what a pesky Orangatang he is! I don't think he did ask permission :-(
    I will have a word with him when I get back to school.
