    I'm not sure about any news that comes out of India. Last week it was a bloke that got cut out of a snake by his mates. Like it's a regular run of the mill occurance. Strange place.

    Maybe monkey society was in some ways better than human society.

    Charlton Heston didn't think so.

    I didn't understand the bit in the article that said she was eating directly off the floor without using her hands. I seem to remember monkeys have prehensile toes on hands and feet and they use them to eat.

    Seemed like it might be a fib.

    Or she had just moved on from hanging out with a pack of wolves.

    And she was walking on her knees and elbows!!
    Hands and feet I could understand but knees and elbows? Unless before the wolves she was living with upside crabs?

    The only words the young girl can say is that she hates Hartlepool.

    It is. He gets pissed on a Friday, wanders off, next thing you know it's all "Panjit's off bothering snakes again ffs" and they have to go and find him and cut him out. In an interview with Sky news one of his friends who wished to remain anonymous said: "we're all getting a bit sick of it to be honest. It was funny at first but it's becoming a regular occurrence. The rest of us have settled down a bit, starting families and such like but Panjit just doesn't seem to want to grow up. As soonas he getsa couple of drinks inside him it's all 'I'm off to the forest!' and I end up having to explain to my missus why I'm back at 3 in the morning covered in blood and stinking of snake. "
