Buckden beast sighted near Linton

The large cat which has been terrorising Buckden for some months, has now been sighted near Linton. Josie Cowpe, wife of  international star of stage and screen John Coop, spotted the beast sleeping menacingly on a garden table. Josie was on a circular walk to and from the Old Hall at Threshfield, at the time. Regular readers will recall that it was Josie who originally spotted the beast in Buckden whilst on the way home from the Buck Inn.  Coincidentally,  the sightings have two things in common - they both involve Josie and public houses. It is curious to note that while the beast used to be black, now it isn't.

Meanwhile in a totally unrelated development, reports have reached us that Stormy is thinking of joining Buckden singers. Visiting paparazzo Karen Jones snapped this picture of Stormy rehearsing in the field behind Buckden Barn for the concert on July 12th.
