Drink spill leads to totally unexpected outcome.
This week, a lorry containing 1000s of cans of lager jack-knifed to avoid a deer and shed its load on the A77 near Ballantrae, leading to an unsolvable riddle.

Police called to scene were soon left scratching their heads as they discovered that much of the lager load had mysteriously vanished. A bemused spokesplod told The JT: "Thousands of cans of bevvy are scattered all over a road in Ayrshire and they just vanish - it’s a complete mystery."

Experts from the Home Office are not ruling out the possibility of alien intervention following a report given by a local to bemused bobbies: "He said that just as the lorry ditched its load, a 200 metre flying saucer

materialised above the stricken vehicle and, using a tractor beam, simply funnelled the lager hoard into its loading bay before making off at sub-light speed."

The local appeared to be in shock, swaying from side to side and experiencing difficulty in speaking. But as the perplexed polisman concluded: "Bizarre at it seems, UFO activity is the only rational explanation for the disappearance of so much free drink on a road in Scotland."

Police forensic teams did discover a pantomime type deer outfit near the scene of the crash but are ruling the find as a simple coincidence.

Inside: Incidence of UFO activity in Ayrshire likely to increase what with Xmas and Hogmanay coming up.
