Jubilee Piglets Escape

Three of the piglets due to be barbecued at the Jubilee celebrations on Monday made a daring escape bid this morning.  Picture shows the 'Fleeing Three' heading for dense bracken, in which it will be difficult to find them in time for the big event.

Owner Hughie MacLachlan, contacted by a spokesman for the charity Pigs Out of Ormsaigbeg, said, "The electric fence has earthed.  Expect the other piglets will be out shortly."

Ormsaigbeg residents are warned to bolster their garden defenses: these three will stop at nothing.
