Reports that a resident in a place called Plymouth which is is known for its gin found a large eel on his doorstep and had it taken away by the RSPCA. Nobody knows how it got there so is a prankster at work here ?

All over the news ..

Eels do travel over land to move between watercourses.

You mean it was all over the Plymouth news or all over the UK wide news Tom?

If it's on national news it's obvs. a go slow day.

Although I could imagine it being in the Sun......

More than likely a pissed person dropping something on the floor.

I guess you could say they were head over eels.....?

I didn't see anything, the local media are too busy reporting on a jungle in Australia or Katie Price's latest antics.

Nothing much local about them.

Well it was all over the Cornish news, but so was Gary Barlow going to a restaurant, so yes it was obviously a very slow news day.
