Dunbarunknown
n. A highly specialised fiscal term used solely by turnstile operatives at Regent's Park Zoo. It refers to the variable amount of increase in the gate takings on a Sunday afternoon, caused by persons going to the zoo because they are in love and believe that the feeling of romance will be somehow enhanced by the smell of panther sweat and rank incontinence in the reptile house.
