I was preparing to go out for a walk with our dog a week ago at my parents' house (they live outside town), it was around midnight, and just when I was ready to go out I had a look through the window and saw a wolf running across our back garden.

I thought it was a Siberian Husky at first or some other wolfdog that had escaped, because I didn't think wolves would get this close to civilisation, but the next day there was a news article in our local paper that said a wolf had been seen about 4 miles from here.

Don't think wolves normally attack you, but don't know what the dog would have done! I stayed inside.

I really don't think I would have known what it was, you can't blame elderly rural Chinese village types.

Penteado, 40, who co-hosts the programme with Matt Allwright, admitted eight offences of dishonestly or knowingly claiming council tax and housing benefit while not declaring he earned thousands from the BBC for the show.
Penteado, from Bournemouth, was granted bail while a pre-sentence report is prepared.

The lass I'm living with at the minute once stayed with me for a few months at my old flat, which was in the old church on South Albion Street. She was seeing some lad, and one day just before he went home he decided, inexplicably, that it'd be a good idea to Bluetooth me a picture of her lying on his bed wearing nowt. I showed it to her and inevitably he got dumped

Bit extreme but jobseeking/benefits can get you down

Having a person with less qualifications than the chips chef in McShite declare you fit for work despite the fact that an exceptionally qualified doctor (specialising in the area appertaining to your illness) has said that you aren't, and lose all of your benefits, can get you down.

Yeah, the headline couldn't have been further from the truth. Mercury standard I'd say.
