Your 'wacky' BBC news caption of the day

So where do you buy mint sauce flavoured lube from anyway?

(xpost) I imagine that such an item could be procured from a bah-ck alley sex shop.

Now you're just ovine me on.

You guys are scrapie the bottom of the barrel here.

Yeah, we should cutlet out.

The man had misunderstood the term "mutton busting"

"Pooh Sticks is free"

The court ruminated for a long time before coming to a verdict.

You could say he was licking his chops

He wanted a bit of rump

^^^ I'm sorry, that's just low quality...

No need to mince words

Hope he doesn't go anywhere near East London, with a reputation like that he'd get proper shanked up.

When he arrives in jail, the other prisoners will flock to get a look at him, because they will have herd about his attempt to fleece the judge.

He's already been widely lambasted.

He'll be doing twenty to ten in the pen...

Not really a yarn to tell his grandchildren though.

"Yes your honor, I was naked when I hoofed it"

The man was caught because witnesses recognised his woolly jumper.

Apparently the guy told the sheep that he only wanted to give her a stroke, but it sounds like he welshed on her.

Police also suspect that the man was trying to supply the sheep with grass.

Experts say that this case will open up a whole new field in criminology.

When the first issue of Sheep World arrived, he realised he'd been fleeced.

The man told reporters the incident had left him "in a deep trough"

"Did I know it would feel good?" he said, musing aloud. "No, it was just one of those haunches."

The sheep was physically okay, but left with a few grazers.

However, she did go and get slaughtered straight afterwards.

LOL

There's no point bleating about it.

"When I heard the police siren," he said ruefully, "I knew something wasn't kosher. So I legged it."

He's also had difficulty getting a bank loan - his credit rating is offal.

"When we realized what had happened," said the chief constable, "we just burst out laughing. Andouille couldn't stop."

Damn, andouille's made from pork.

The farmer called the police on his mobile. He has a contract with Phones4Ewe.

ARGH

Despite rumours, there is no video footage on EweTube.

This follows on from an incident last week, where several Premiership footballers were accused of roasting a sheep.

"At first when he called, he gave us wrong directions. He may have been trying," the constable added with a chuckle, "to pull the wool over our eyes."

The man was also believed to have been listening on his iP0d to the Pink Fl0yd track "Careful With That Axe Ewe-gene".

Reports that another four men were seen running from the scene are still unconfirmed. It is believed the suspect was not acting alone, and they had been planning to give the animal a roasting.

His iPod is also said to contain another Pink Floyd track, from a later, less-acclaimed album. The track is called "The Post War Dream".

The court heard that the defendant had also recently been denied a visa by the Australian government.

Why did he do it? Haggis (I guess) we'll never know...

The other sheep were taken into protective custody last night, due to rumours in the criminal underworld that they had grassed.

The police suspected that the man was a "small holder".

^^ why was this never made into a meme?

The man admitted that the experience had been near the knuckle and that he had been a chump.

could write THIS under Saddam

"LATEST: Swiss adventurer Yves Rossy becomes the first person to fly solo across the English Channel using a single"

It'd have to be one of those 12" gatefold ones, I guess...
