Last time it was Arizona, this time it’s a village in Lancashire. Gangs of wild chickens have been running amok doing what chickens do, digging up gardens, foraging for food, crowing throughout the day and making little chickens. Another Daily Mail special describes a gang of 50 marauding birds as ‘the neighbours from hell’ dubbing [...]
With a headline like that, this story can only come from one source…The Daily Mail. A chicken in Needingworth, Cambridgeshire has changed sex from a clucking hen to a crowing cockerel.

Like a Mr Potato Head, except without the potato, these odd little toys come in a range from Captain Hardboiled (a pirate of course), to Eggbot, [...]
Removed ‘So’ in the first sentence and changed ‘would’ to ‘world’.
I’m sick of this outrageous slander! My poor local butcher, M Moen & Sons, in Clapham has the Daily Mail clucking its nose at the £32 price tag of his feed-range 120 day reared bird. But never fear, The Daily Telegraph has sprung to the 4kg monster bird’s defence demonstrating it delivers excellent taste and [...]
The headline is cryptic, but literal, and I’m sorry I’ve got no answers here. This poor little fella was spotted on the platform at Tottenham Court Road last Wednesday shortly before the last train south called. Where was he from? Where was he going? Why is he headless? If you know anything about how or [...]
