Classic. Would LOL again.

This is the kind of shiat farkers find funny.

How else am I supposed to get my sheep into a supermarket? On a lead like a commoner?

Daaaad?

What the flock!

Maybe it was just baaaaaahgain hunting?

Nice. "Those brigands caused the sheep great stress by removing it from its flock. We're going to hold on to it for six more days."

""We have tracked down the sheep's owner but we can't return it to its flock for six days because of restrictions on the movement of livestock."

There's a 5-day waiting period for press releases and interviews..

Store manager Joe Lock said: "We were shocked to discover that a poor sheep had been wheeled into our store.

Is this the same Joe Lock whose store sells dozens of butchered sheep cadavers every day?

Sheep by any other name are free to go about in shopping carts, then?

What a poor sheep, how inhumane of those brutes to dump it in the horror that is sarf-east London.

/I bet it's those dastardly Welshmen again.

Ewe will charged with Robbery.

FTFA: "It is against the law to cause an animal unnecessary suffering."

Seriously.... You think the sheep even gave a damn that all this happened? Sheep aren't exactly the most intelligent animals. I bet it didn't even know/care what was going on. I can't believe that anyone would equate this to causing the animal suffering.

/give the kids a stern talking to, ground them for a week, and move on.

I bet they're feeling sheepish, now.

/I got mutton

Tibbo7: Maybe it was just baaaaaahgain hunting?

You sound Bostonian.

Those baaaastards!

"We have tracked down the sheep's owner but we can't return it to its flock for six days because of restrictions on the movement of livestock."

WTF?

FTFA: ...but we can't return it to its flock for six days because of restrictions on the movement of livestock we need to pass it 'round the station house first.

There, it's fixed...

Culprits?

At least they're not complete amateurs, and knew enough to cover their heads as they rolled him into the store...

How dare they cause that sheep undue stress! He was due to be on my dinner plate three days ago!

wait, so... it was Rob'ed?

Roadogs: At least they're not complete amateurs, and knew enough to cover their heads as they rolled him into the store...

From what we're told here in the colonies, London is completely awash in security cameras. I'd bet many of the locals cover their heads even when they're not breaking the law pulling silly pranks.

They decided to make like sheepherders and get the flock outta there!

/lame

WTF?

Well these kind of restrictions are probably in place to prevent the spread of diseases. If you take a sheep to a fair you might not want to take it right back home and put it with the rest but instead quarantine it for a few days just so you can be sure it hasn't caught some kind of sheep illness. Its unlikely the sheep met up with any other sheep in the supermarket though so they're being a bit silly...

I think the 6 days is to get the rape test results back.

Illegal or not that was flipping funny.

A round for the house on me...

brap: Ewe will charged with Robbery.

I chortled

Now I'm hungry.

Oh, Was that baaad?

Those aren't sheep, they're Goats (and a pig)!

Honest Bender: FTFA: "It is against the law to cause an animal unnecessary suffering."

So, putting sheep in a shopping cart/trolley causes "unnecessary suffering",

yet its OK for parents to put their crotchfruit in them (in the special compartment all carts/trolleys have for kids)?

Honest Bender: FTFA: "It is against the law to cause an animal unnecessary suffering."

Perhaps they were referring to the store manager's suffering?

//Well, he isn't a vegetable or a mineral...

Ever heard of foot & mouth disease?

Biden had a disease named after him?

Don't know about Rob the sheep, but Shaun is a different matter... (new window)

Pygmy Pony: Don't know about Rob the sheep, but Shaun is a different matter... (new window)

LOVE Shaun the Sheep! He would have driven there himself and pushed the cart around the market.

Klivian: brap: Ewe will charged with Robbery.

I was expecting nothing less than a hiss and a tossed rotting fruit, this is my lucky night!

Baaaaaadd prank.

So, the sheep was taken from its fold and wheeled into the supermarket, where it caught foot-and-mouth, and therefor can't just be returned to where it came from?

Did it catch anthrax from some frozen lamb chops or something?

I mean, it didn't mix with any other livestock, just the chavs who ... ok, never mind, I see now.

After reading the headline (yes, and only the headline), I was curious how they knew his name. Has he been in the store before? Provided identification?

Woo! Sheep thread! Been forever.

Does the RSPCA specialize in appointing spokespeople with large amounts of sand permanently embedded in their vagina?

So when do they arrest the people who make Foie Gras?

Never?

Oh then back to carting sheep into supermarkets for me!

/Fark this planet.

"We have tracked down the sheep's owner but we can't return it to its flock for six days because of restrictions on the movement of livestock." AKA, the police wanna PITA for a week, plain and simple.
