Spotted by MacHeath and James Higham in The Daily Mail:
Residents on a quiet cul-de-sac must have thought they were still dreaming when they woke up to this dramatic scene in their front garden.
Home owners (1) were left lost for words when they opened their curtains to find 30-strong herd of cows stampeding through their gardens at 6am on Sunday morning after escaping from a nearby field. And one quick-thinking home owner in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, managed to captured the whole thing on camera.(2)
1) It's the Daily Mail. Tenants don't exist and even if they do, whether they were lost for words of not is of no f-ing concern to the Daily Mail.
2) Not true. The video shows the cows tramping left to right, but if this street is indeed a cul-de-sac, the "whole thing" would include the herd tramping back right to left again, which would make the whole thing even funnier (reminiscent of the relevant scene in Life of Brian).

Missing the House prices out though.
SB, well spotted, there's nary a mention.
They haven't thought this through properly, have they?

Won't be long before there's a follow up, 'cows creep up silently on even angrier locals'
When I first looked at this video, I was puzzled as to why there were already hoofmarks in the lensman's lawn, but of course, he was filming them on the way back.
We're tag-teaming for you, Mark.
VFTS, thanks, I have posted.
B, well spotted, I take it back.
JH, better two tip-offs than none.
