SLEEP deprivation?
Police officers in Surrey,
England, were determined to
protect the public’s right to a
good night’s sleep, when they
stormed into a village pub to stop
it playing live music From 4am.
Licensee Kate Dillon was more
than surprised at the arrival of
the officers, saying that the
advertisement of live music From
4am referred to the band’s name,
not the hour at which they were
scheduled to perform (the name
paying homage to a jazz song by
Herbie Hancock).
“I was angry more than
anything on the day,” Dillon said.
“If one official turns up that’s
funny enough, but if four people
come into the pub like they did,
it’s absolutely ridiculous.
“When I calmed down a bit I
thought it was absolutely
hilarious,” she added.
STRANGE migration.
Motorists in the streets of Taizhou, China, would have been forgiven for thinking that mother nature was playing a practical joke with migration recently, when a massive flock of 5,000 ducks walked through the busy city streets causing traffic havoc. Rather than a natural phenomenon, the migration was caused by a duck farmer who herded the flock 1km through the busy city streets in search of a pond with more food, leaving cars gridlocked and pedestrians scrambling to get out of the sea of poultry. Speaking to media after the duck drive, the farmer said that he regularly changes his flock’s location, but has never lost a duck whilst in transit.
