Today it was in the newspaper that an owl got stuck in a cattle-grid, and also that an unusually fat fox had been shot in Borgarfjörður.
Other memorable stories from my time in Iceland so far:
Cat stuck up tree
Bird gets into university building
Owl sits on fence for the afternoon
Unusually small calf born
It's all happening here! I mean, there is real news as well, but sometimes some of the smaller stories feel a bit Framley-esque,* as if Morgunblaðið were a local newspaper. Which I suppose, considering the number of people it caters to, it kind of is.
P.S. None of these beat my old local newspaper, The Mercury, which once actually ran a story about a man who had grown a very large marrow.
* If you don't know what this means, you're probably not my brother. You should go here and improve your life.
