Titz Towers, North Notts

As some of you know, I like looking at local news. Here is what's caught my eye today:

A van driver doing 19mph on the M1 in Herts. The driver wasn't, but has been reported for driving without due care and attention. I'm not too convinced by this. I think at 19mph, he's got all the time in the world to take care and give attention to things. I think it must be the slowest anyone has seen a white van being driven outside a red light area.

In Cardiganshire 5 workers in a castle have been given redundancy notices. The last siege in Britain was in the 17th Century, so I'd argue they've been doing well to last so long. I'm just curious what they're doing with the boiling oil. If they don't leave voluntarily, they'll be a swine for the bailiffs to eject.

Meanwhile, in York a Wallaby has escaped and was last seen bouncing about on the ring road. Police are trying to recover it. I'm not sure how you recover a wandering wallaby, its not a problem you come across that often. Do you put food out? Does an officer dress up as a female wallaby? Or do you just get a couple of people drive slowly in a white van and then grab it when they get close?

My daughter and I swear we saw a dead wallaby on a country road in Essex. We both shouted ooh kangaroo! As we drove past it. I then deduced it was too small to be a kangaroo and declared it to be a wallaby. It was probably a deer

I regularly crawl along at speeds a lot less than 19mph on our motorways. Most of the time I'm stationary

the van thing might work but would ask the guys in the castle for some of the oil to soak a mop head in..

well known fact that wallabies stick best to an oily mop..

Maybe that's what the driver in Herts was looking for

Headline in the Donegal Times.

Man dies of Ebola after watching RTE news.

Now I knew it was highly contagious but I didn't think you could catch it from the news.
