Just a fat essex bird crawling around on all fours after an all dayer yesterday, and a good smashing last night!  :grin:

Well "Essex lion 'probably a dog', says zoologist." Of course it is. It's from Essex.

Either that or the Police report that says with further observation, it turns out the lion in Essex is just a snow leopard with a spray tan and hair extensions.

this has pissed me off anyway...

on seeing the photo it is quite obviously not a lion  :angry:



i think the idiots from Dagenham who panicked about seeing smoke from a bonfire and then saw the 'lion' should be charged with wasting police time. Essex police should hang their heads in shame and be charged with wasting police time and wasting public interest.

this is the first picture I have seen of this so called 'lion' and yes you are right its not a lion. More like a large domestic cat/bobcat.
