NEWS VIEWS AND MY EVENING

 
all. We watched the wonderful Jane Eyre on the TV. Written by Charlotte Brontë. Oh if you haven’t read it or seen it on the television, and you like the English language, then it’s a must. My Son first found it rather disbelieving that people lived in such a way. It was amazing to watch his reactions throughout the program. At the end of it, he said he needed a good comedy before bed. Hahahahah.

I had a rubbish tea, so I’m now really hungry.

Some news I came across.

POPE Francis gave Queen Elizabeth a present for the future king, Prince George, in a brief and informal 30 minute audience at the Vatican on Thursday

I wonder what it was. Any guesses?

A 13-year-old boy with severe autism has spent 18 months away from his family because he cannot be cared for in his home county. Josh Wills from Redruth, Cornwall, is in a specialist unit in Birmingham.

“This is tragic. What crime has that poor boy done or his parents who love him? But why if that is the only care this poor child can receive, do the parents not move closer to him?”

Now then, I’m not too sure on this story, at first I thought it was an April fool, but as it only was reported on the news a few hours ago on the 3rd of April, it’s too late right? But have a read and see what you think?

Is it a plane? A car? Nope, it’s a Geep.

County Kildare sheep farmer Paddy Murphy said the birth of the cross-bred animal was a "pure shock to the system"

A rare, hybrid animal that is part goat and part sheep has been born on a farm in the Republic of Ireland.

The animal, referred to as a geep, was born about two weeks ago on Paddy Murphy's farm in County Kildare.

The unexpected arrival is thought to be the result of mating between a goat and one of the sheep farmer's Cheviot ewes.

Mr Murphy said the cross-breeding was not intentional. He described it as a "pure shock to the system" and said it would be a "one-off" event on his farm.

"I've never seem anything like him before," he told theIrish Farmers Journal, adding that his family had been involved in sheep farming for "generations".

Mr Murphy confirmed that the geep appeared to be healthy and "thriving" and was able to run faster than other lambs that were born around the same time.

“Hahahahaha. No, God. Well, I hope it was an accident and not deliberate as my Son told us today a very disturbing story about a well-known chicken food outlet; they breed chickens without wings and beaks. They also are red. Oh gross. What are we doing to our poor animals? I asked my boy who was a vegetarian. “Does this not make you want to never eat there again?” He said he does think about it, but still would eat there. Awful. I mean, will the famous burger place breed cows without legs?

On that note, reach for your veg and enjoy. Xx
