It was supposed to be fun.. But the organisers hadnt informed people properly or put up signs at entraces to a local recreation area.
A mother and her child cycled through the common at about 20.45 and came face to face with three figures hanging from trees, they were dressed in trousers and shirts but had white pilowcases over their heads (or so she thought).
She called the police who came and cut down the figures and took them into custody.
They were acutally part of a haunted hunt organised to entertain people and families were supposed to go around the spooky trail through the woods discovering clues..
Especially (and I kid you not) I got a text from my daughter while I was out walking the dogs this morning it said... Mum dont let Murphy swim, two seals have escaped from the zoo and are swimming at the lake.
Who raised the alarm ? Police? No.... Staff at the zoo? No Wildlife control? No... A fisherman sitting by the lake saw the pair catching and eating carp...He has filmed them.. (I hope to get the clip later.) But its not the first time animals have escaped, this placed used to be called the Otter park but the joke was that all the otters escaped.. Two years ago OH and I were stunned to see a pelican swimming along next to a field full of cows and last year a walking place nearby was closed after locals spotted a racoon...
The really worrying thing is ....they have two polar bears
Anyone who has FB ... heres the film and its three seals ... NO swimming for Murphy !!!!
They are going to be a real nuisance for local wildlife.
I would hope that they will go out and capture them.
My son in law ( who knows everyone remotely connected with animals in our province) says that the keepers know there is a gap under the mesh of the enclosure but the seals normally dont go far and always come back so no one has sent a diver in to repair it !!!!! ( you couldnt make this up)
But now they have stayed away longer and have been feeding on the large carp that live in the lake...
Like I say these people also look after polar bears

Surely, the zoo needs some sort of public license, and they must be in breach of it?

I would think so also. If a zoo can't control its animals then who can?

I would have thought they were in breach too but somehow nothing gets done..Maybe a polar bear will escape and eat someone then the authorities will take notice.. ( I hope not it would end badly for the bear)
Seriously this place is a bit of a joke with the animals theyve had escape.. Plus a couple theyve had stolen..Oh yes people putting tortoises and snakes under their jackets and just walking out!

Truly WTF ... I bought a dog crate for my car because George has the tendency to howl and eat the window winders.. Its for both the dogs but Murphy looked at it and said no way.. he just backed up and has refused to go in. Weve tried all sorts of things, had it left open, threw some cookies in (george scoffed the lot) threw his ball in (he laid on the floor and stared at it willing it to come back) so after 10 days I decided to cut my losses and re-sell it.
I put up some good photos and an accurate description. Including measurements. Then I get the people contacting me... will my dog fit in it?
I have no idea, what type of dog is it? Is it taller than the crate if so it wont fit..
Oh yeah , didnt think of that..
Hi can I buy your crate? Yep sure
Will it fit in my car?
What car do you have? She names a thing not much more than a glorified rollarskate..
No it wont
A woman , hi how big is the crate? The measurements are on the photo..
Oh yeah so they are..Do you think a sheep would fit in it?
errr depends how big the sheep is but yeah I guess so..
Ok I think I would like to buy it..
15 minutes later Sorry I dont think it will be suitable because the sheep piss a lot and this crate might not be waterproof..
So I add instructions to the advert..
Please take a tape measure and measure your car and your dog. Make sure it fits your car and dog before offering to buy.
This crate will not fit on the back of your bike, your ford fiesta, your VW beetle or your mini. You dog will only fit in it if the dog is not taller than the crate itself.. So a beagle , border collie , dalmation or lab will fit but your great dane , or Irish wolfhound will not..Nor is it suitable for live stock.
A guy contacts me.. Can I buy the crate?
Yeah sure have you measured your car?
Yep its a good fit..
ok,
He arrives Ive waited in for this guy..
He offers the crate to his car and of course it doesnt fit he has only measured the very tallest part of the roof space not the edges .. Oh dear it wont fit
No kidding...
People of Holland be happy that gun laws here are very very strict...
The vicar of dibly, a silly British sitcom about a lady vicar who gets sent to a village full of halfwits and finds that they are all very adorable has caused outrage.
Not because of the lady vicar but because in some Christmas 10 min specials taking the form of a video diary the leading lady dared to mention BLM and take a knee.. The slumbering filth that is racism has been woken and shown its ugly face yet again This follows the outrage of the dance group diversity including it as part of a dance on the UK got talent show.
