They really are starting to bring the fight to us ...

From the BBC:

A bullock was shot dead after it escaped from an abattoir and rampaged along streets in Birmingham.

The animal was seen in Balsall Heath, leading to roads being closed while police tried to deal with the situation. Firearms officers were called out as a vet decided it was too dangerous to tranquilise the animal because its behaviour was unpredictable. Roads reopened shortly after the bull was killed on Wednesday morning...

I've been expecting your post on that one.

So, just for once, the Police scored a 'bullseye'!

Let us face it, MW, this story is a load of 'Bullocks' whilst admittedly, at the same time, being humourous.

You are to be congratulated for 'steering' us away from the mundane poltical news to one that has some balls!

Killed in the Bullring no doubt.

Merry Christmas MW.

I cannot believe no-one caught this on their mobile - surely it would be a YouTube Xmas classic!

Midlands Joke.

What's the difference between a Bull and a Bison?

You can't wash your hands in a Bull.
