@HannahIamthest1 Absolutely correct.

@TheGriftReport But whey did they want to park in that field? What's the context?

[Grifty @TheGriftReport]

Furious farmer sprays dozens of luxury cars with thick cow slurry after drivers ignored signs and illegally parked in his field during the scorching Bank Holiday heatwave.

The chaos unfolded near Rydal Water in the Lake District, Cumbria, where at least 20 vehicles, including Mercedes, Jaguars and BMWs, were left covered in manure.

Clear signs reading “Polite Notice, DO NOT PARK IN THE FIELD” and “SHEEP IN FIELD” were completely ignored, with drivers even moving rocks that had been placed to block access.

The farmer drove his slurry tanker up and down the field, calmly hosing down every car in the baking heat.

Cumbria Police have confirmed they were called and are investigating, but many locals are saying the drivers got exactly what they deserved.

Classic case of “park like an idiot, pay the price.”

Do you think he did the right thing?

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

No idea who the MP was that said that, but give him a bonus🤣

Jenrick "where are we?"

"You're in a different party"

This is hilarious. What a put down.

It's very sad that we will never hear that 'Conor Chaplin Baby' goal commentary again at #itfc. A real highlight in recent times

[Renegade Statman Ⓜ️ @CallMeStat]

Wishing Conor Chaplin the best of luck for the future. A player we will all look back on fondly.

A fantastic win today for @Haverhill__cc 1s. Brilliant work from @twonny57 and Craig Williams to dig the team out of a hole and beat the Div 2 leaders @abberton. Experience proving its worth

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

@prodnose I was watching a really tense match at my local cricket club. It was entertaining, unlike the football on show at Wembley.

@mansfieldtownfc How awful. So young. RIPSummer

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

@CJF__x Keep it up boss. And please share some of that with those relentless doom mongerers among the fans

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

@TheCruncher76 I'm confident mate, but the nerves will still be shredded.

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

What a nerve jangling match #itfc. So close to winning against a team that has not lost in the league for 3 months. With 10 to go i thought we had actually lost, judging by some of the nonsense posted on here.

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

@ITFCWomen His impact is clear to see. A good appointment

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

What a night for #itfc. Massive wins for the men's team and the women's.

[Steve Barton @SteveEcho]

Well. He got a bit lucky with that one but do i care? Nope #itfc

[The Championship Chat Podcast @Champchatpod24]

Jaden Philogene converts from the penalty spot to give Ipswich Town the lead at The Valley; 1-2! 🎯

That could prove to be a MASSIVE goal at both ends of the table! 👀
