You have met as you have been driving along the road to your house? .......
I turned into my road and met a real live Cow meandering along the road like it didnt have a care in the road .....
I then end up giving the police a running commentary where the damned thing was and was going until they managed to get here ........
No I havent been drinking or popping anything ............ not sure the police believed me initially lol ......   |

Rang the stables as soon as i got home. "

I had a similar incident with 3 cows that had decided to nip out for a wander! They'd wandered onto a 40mph road into the middle of a crossroads, fortunately it was late at night so quiet. An off duty copper and myself had to kind of herd them back to the field round the corner...although to be honest I think they'd realised the pub was shut so had decided to head back anyway!! x |

6 horses ran up the main street in ottershaw when I lived in the nurses accommodation. Called the police they thought we were on something that night till other people reported it. Never seen so many police in ottershaw as I did that night  |

Being a country bumpkin I'm used to all manner of animals wandering round the streets. I once opened the curtains to my patio doors to discover 6 cows in my garden. I've also shot pheasants from my back door, found chickens on the roof of my car. It's a bit like living in 1863!!! |

I stopped at a crossing once and a short fat black woman crossed the road in front of me. She was stark naked. No shoes or anything. She was about 20.
She didn't bat an eyelid, crossed the road and carried on walking. |

I used to live in rural wales, on the trip home from work there was regularily an escapee donkey and also in a few fields from my house the farmer had several llamas which were known to find their way into my driveway every now and again! Lol! |

If it was 27 years ago I apologise for the shock I must have caused. |

I have seen the family of ducks crossing edge lane in Liverpool, it was that good it made the front page of the Liverpool Echo.
I was out for a drive round Pulborpugh and there was two swans causing havoc on the road, I got of the car and tried to move them to the side of the road but the daft sod kept coming back. |

"Oh and we was on a motorway once cant remember where and all the traffic stopped as a mother duck and her babies where crossing over the road"
My sister still lives with the guilt of coming round a corner on a country road and killing a duck...that was being followed by its ducklings. She was so upset...the poor ducklings scarpered so no idea what happened to them |

I would've thought you would have at least had flip flops on. |

I had one similar but it hunched down in the middle of the road. I looked in my mirror to see it stand up straight and run off...  |

I've hit deer twice during my driving years...first time I clipped it and it escaped into the field (dunno if it died or not), second time, it was still alive and I dragged it to the side of the road with a friend and the guy in the car behind me got a gun and put it down...also was once almost rammed by a bull escaping from a field, and once was a passenger in a car that hit a cow (painful whiplash for a while)...joys of living in the country |

"Maybe it's owner had gone into the newsagent to buy a copy of Anglers Monthly  "
It were tied to a lamp post outside a night club.. about a foot in length. Very bizarre! (maybe it were someone's way of snagging some pussy? who knows, it was in manchester lol) |

Oh and there was a time when we were riding down a country lane (not slow, but not too fast) and a pheasant flew into our pathway and hit my ex in the chest.. Totally winded him and bruised his ribs !! |

As an alarm response rider, I get called to a property just on the outskirts of london in the middle of a fair sized wood. There is a gated guard house area with 24/7blokes there who are there to prevent the use of the private road only, the long road up to the property has a strict speed limit of 10mph, upon leaving the property safe and secure and making my way down said road, a badger crosses, gets the hump with me, and decides and scrap is in order, in short, running away from an angry badger at 10mph past a laughing security guard, until the badger spotted him as an easier target and turned his attention to the guard, that bloke shod have been a sprinter ......lol. Serves him right for laughing. |

I once came upon a large boat sitting in the middle of the main road - all on it's own...
Some guy had been moving it on a trailer, behind his tractor, but hadn't roped if on.
Tractor and trailer went hurtling around a right turn into a side road, but the boat just kept going, for a good 50 yards....
And there it was - just as I came along....!!! |
