A wee squirrel has forever won the heart of Under the Counter after it got drunk and rampaged through a private members’ club.
Sam Boulter, the secretary of some posho club in Worcestershire, thought the gaff had been broken into when he arrived one morning. The floor was covered in beer and smashed bottles. Then, just as he was about to phone the police, out popped a squirrel from behind a box of crisps. Boulter reported it was ‘staggering around’.
Claiming he’d never seen a drunk squirrel he told the BBC: “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 must have flung himself on the handle and drank some as he was staggering around all over the place and moving a bit slowly.”
More power to the little fella, that’s all UTC can say.
