A classic reported a few months back by Central Scotland Police...
Police have appealed to the public to stop making "frivolous" 999 calls after a woman phoned to complain that the rabbit she had bought did not have floppy ears.
She dialled the emergency number when she discovered that her pet's ears did not match their description in a newspaper advert.
In another abuse of the emergency services number, a man demanded police action because there were too many onions in his Chinese takeaway.
and this is the sort of story that for me, makes life worth living....
Swedish Moose steals bicycle
A hungry Moose already known to raid rose bushes has stolen a bicycle from a garden in Sweden.
Bjoern and Monica Helamb, of Vuoggatjalme, said the moose had regularly visited their garden to eat their roses over the last decade.
Fed up with the intrusion, and blooming destruction, the couple decided to take action. They placed a bicycle in front of the flowers as their front line of defence.
But their efforts were to no avail.
The moose, dubbed Droopy Ear, leaned through the bike frame to get to the roses and ate away as usual.
"Then she disappeared, with the bike hanging around her neck," Mr Helamb said.
