Knock, Knock, Who's There....

I say! Police in Lancashire, UK caught one woman rather by surprise when they battered down the door of her Preston home on Friday of last week. Elaine Squires was happily washing away her cares in the shower when police used a battering ram to knock down the front door and frighten her daughter half to death. Ms Squires assumed it was just the neighbours being noisy again, until she was dragged out of the shower, with just a towel between her birthday suit and Preston's finest.

The whole shennanigans was a mix up of addresses, according to the police, who had intended to carry out a drugs raid on a nearby house, but got somewhat confused since there were no house numbers on the Squires residence.

I dare say that the most amusing thing for me about this story is that there is so little going in Preston the local press are resorting to reporting amusing incidents like this one. Go Preston. You'll catch Susan Boyle up before too long.

Good evening!
