News from Shropshire

I am pleased to report that the Shropshire Star is keeping up its high standard of reporting. Try:

North Shropshire firefighters were called in to help "moo-ve" a cow that became stuck after deciding to give milking a miss.

and:

Gnipper is top dog in grrreat town.

Meanwhile, the South Shropshire Journal reports:

If administrators fail in their battle to save embattled trouser manufacturers Walters, south Shropshire could be facing an estimated £2 million loss to its economy.

I always insist on embattled trousers myself. They are so much harder wearing.
