Drunk Squirrel Wreaks Havoc at Private Club

Bottles and glasses smashed as a result of the rodent’s rampage

An inebriated squirrel has left the Honeybourne Railway Club facing a £300 bill.

Sam Boulter, the secretary of the club in Evesham, Worcestershire described how he saw the animal staggering around the premises.

The squirrel emerged from behind a box of crisps, looking rather the worse for wear.

It appears that the rodent had run behind the bar and managed to turn on one of the pumps.

Whether the squirrel was thirsty or just looking for a good night out remains unclear, but its progress was somewhat shaky.

"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,” Mr Boulter, 62, told the BBC.

"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”

The squirrel was eventually trapped in a waste paper bin and freed.
