And now for some news from our friends across the sea. In the Daily Telegraph today, an article about a 19 year old girl who found a bat in her bra.
"In her bra" as in "in the bra" she was currently wearing. At work.
Abbie Hawkins, a hotel receptionist, thought her mobile phone was ringing when she felt vibrations coming from her clothes.
But she later discovered the tiny creature tucked away in the padded pocket of her underwear.
As staff and colleagues crowded around, Miss Hawkins, 19, produced the frightened bat, which was the size of her hand.
Yeah.
I once had a cockroach on my foot at work, but this definitely trumps it. Young Abbey seems very kind hearted as well, commenting that
"Once I realised it was a bat I was shocked, but then I felt quite sorry for it really.
It looked very snug in there and I thought how mean I was for disturbing it."
I'm not sure what I'd do if I found a flying rodent in my bra, but I suspect I wouldn't spend time feeling guilty about removing it. If my reaction to the roach is any indication, I'd be too busy screaming.
