OUR story earlier this week about a squiffy squirrel that ransacked a bar and caused £300 of damage sent the internet nuts.
The story was widely shared on social media, and there were some delightful "posed by model" pictures of squirrels added to the tale.
Sam Boulter, branch secretary of Honeybourne Railway Club, near Evesham, thought it had been ransacked by burglars when he opened up on Sunday evening.
Beer was spilled on the floor, money and straws were scattered about and glasses and bottles had been knocked off the shelves.
But the real culprit soon made an appearance when the squirrel finally came out of its hiding place.
This is what the internet made of the story (you can read the original here):
