There was drama at the Harare Exhibition Park yesterday when Mr Bean look-alike Pak Bean showed up. Pak Bean was at the Splash Paints stand yesterday afternoon where adults and kids queued to get a chance to have a picture taken with the famous comedian look-alike after buying a Splash paint cap for $2. Mr Pak Bean is a spitting image of iconic British comedian, Mr Bean, real name Rowan Atkinson.

The second day of the agricultural show was an exciting day for the school children who were admitted into the show ground for free if they were wearing their uniforms. However, some could not gain entry as their parents and guardians could not accompany them inside due to the increase of the gate fee from $3 last year to $5.

“I am happy that I got a chance to attend the agricultural show today for free and it is a relief from the everyday routine at home and there is no fuss about homework today,” commented a student.

The children were excited at seeing clowns, riding trains at the National Railways of Zimbabwe stand, the jumping castles, canoeing in the pools, having their faces painted and wearing masks and crowns among other games.

Business was a low for other vendors except those selling fast foods.
