'Drunk' squirrel causes chaos at bar
A squirrel has caused hundreds of pounds worth of damage at a private members club in Worcestershire.
It might sound like an April Fools day joke, but a 'drunk' squirrel has caused chaos at a private members club in Worcestershire.
Sam Boulter, secretary of Honeybourne Railway Club in Evesham, told the BBC that he originally thought someone had broken into the premises as he found the floor covered in beer and smashed glass.
Mr Boulter then described how he saw a squirrel 'staggering around' after coming out from behind a box of crisps.
"There were bottles scattered around, money scattered around and he had obviously run across the bar's pumps and managed to turn on the Caffrey's tap," he added.
"He must have flung himself on the handle and drank some as he was staggering around all over the place and moving a bit slowly. I've never seen a drunk squirrel before. He was sozzled and looked a bit worse for wear, shall we say."
Mr Boulter estimates that he lost around £300 in the incident. The squirrel was eventually caught in a waste paper bin and set free.
