🐐 STOLEN GOAT – PLEASE HELP FIND TACO 🐐
Four people broke into Buttercups Sanctuary for Goats, near Maidstone, on Saturday night (5 July) and stole a newly rescued male goat named Taco.
⏰ The theft happened between 22:44 and 22:48.
📹 CCTV footage has been sent to Kent Police.
📞 If you saw anything or know where Taco is, please contact police quoting crime ref 46/114812/25.
Taco had only just arrived after being found stray in a local village. He is timid, vulnerable, and we fear for his safety.
Please share this appeal and help bring Taco home 🐐💔

⏲️We're advising passengers to check before they travel on Monday and Tuesday this week, particularly on the sections of the Brighton Main Line where speed restrictions will be in place.
🌡️ Rail temperatures are predicted to soar with the mercury expected to hit 50C on the track itself, which means that we need to impose blanket speed restrictions on part of the Brighton Main Line to ensure everyone’s safety. The speed restriction will be in place on both Monday and Tuesday.
🚆To keep trains running at these lower speeds, a revised timetable is being introduced which is summarised online at each train operator’s website.
These websites and other online journey planners such as https://t.co/zPFAbAyrKC are being updated with the revised times.
🌇With temperatures set to soar as forecast by the Met Office, speed restrictions have to be imposed across large parts of the network to ensure everyone’s safety.
⌨️We won’t be able to run as many trains as normal and journeys will take longer. Trains that are running will also be much busier. If you are able to work from home then that may be your best option.
🥤If you do take the train, then please remember to take a bottle of water and if you begin to feel unwell, seek help at the next station and speak to station staff. Pulling emergency alarms onboard may delay us getting help to you.
