Have the contractors built a lame duck?
Horse asleep on vet
A vet was rescued in Devon after becoming trapped under a sedated horse. The vet was called after the horse became stuck in the fence. Devon and Somerset Fire Service was called and found the heavily sedated horse
had fallen asleep on top of the vet, trapping her. They freed the woman and released the animal from the fence. The vet was not injured. (Source: BBC.co.uk)
Snoop Street fan
US rapper Snoop Dogg recorded a video message to wish Coronation Street happy 50th anniversary. "What up dog. It's your boy big Snoop Dogg saying happy 50th anniversary to Coronation Street and all my peoples in Manchester UK gettin' in there doin' it big." Earlier in the year Snoop told the Sun: "When I'm in Britain I love to eat Indian food and chill in my hotel room and watch Coronation Street. If Coronation Street want me to make a cameo then, cool, let's do it. Maybe I could just play myself doing a concert in Manchester and I could come into the pub for lunch." Having been to Manchester before, he added: "I think Coronation Street is to Manchester what the Statue Of Liberty is to New York."
Expensive leak
Franks advises: "Please advise your reader that if the water is leaking in the driveway from the pipe between their meter on the boundary and their house, it is their responsibility to get it repaired and pay for the water used. This can be checked by taking a meter reading in the evening, use no water during the night, check meter reading is the same in the morning before using any water. This happened to me some years ago, the black plastic supply pipe failed under the drive concrete, it was somewhat expensive to replace."
Tibetan knowledge
Tibetan prayer flags or clothesline; Sarah writes: "Please tell Barry it's not nice to call someone a fool just because they don't know something. Perhaps Barry took Tibetan Culture 101 30 years ago and is now gleefully triumphant because he can finally use something he learned."
