           <title>Bizarre Bradford: Both tragedy and triumph on a day of animal tales</title>
           
           <link>http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/tahistory/featuresnostalgiapasttimes/10269267.Bizarre_Bradford__Both_tragedy_and_triumph_on_a_day_of_animal_tales/?ref=rss</link>
           
           
           <description><![CDATA[
  Sometimes here on the Bizarre Bradford desk we like to spread the stories for each week’s column from a number of different papers in different years, and sometimes we hit upon gold in one single edition – and all of it animal-related. Thus it is this week, when all of our items were to be found in the Telegraph & Argus from Monday September 23, 1963. The first piece to catch our eyes had the arresting headline “His monkey caused blockage, Court told”. The mind boggled, and no less so after reading the piece: “A 25-year-old photographer who caused a ‘massive’ crowd to gather in Kirkgate, Bradford, on Saturday afternoon, ‘apparently intended bringing a little colour to the Bradford street,’ Mr John Bates, prosecuting, told Bradford City Court today.” The snapper, Lawrence Jay, pleaded guilty to obstructing the free passage of the highway, the report said, and informed us that he was fined £2 and ordered to pay £2 2s costs. But whither the monkey? A-ha: “Mr Bates said Jay had with him a monkey and was handing the pet to people and then photographing them with it. This attracted a crowd which was described by a policeman who apprehended Jay as ‘massive’. The pavement and part of the road was blocked by the crowd, added Mr Bates.” As if that wasn’t odd enough, consider this strange little piece: “Death of a fox at the farm”. A most curiously-written couple of paragraphs, worth retelling in full here: “For years it has been Herbert and Desmond Bailey’s wish to catch foxes which have attacked their remote farm at Wyke. “As they were working in the farmyard at Holly Hall Farm yesterday, they saw a fox in the middle of a pen of piglets. “They chased the fox. It jumped towards an open window, became stuck and in trying to free itself, died.” That’s your nature red in tooth and claw right there. An oddly poetic little piece, almost Beatrix Potter-ish in its unwavering view of rural life – and death. Speaking of death, how many ocelots does it take to make a coat? Take a look at this advert for C&A: “It looks like ocelot... it feels like ocelot...” But actually, it isn’t ocelot. Ten and a half guineas for a full-length simulation ocelot coat. Rest easy, conservationists. Time for some happy animal news, quick! And here it is: “Budgie show best ever”. Quite a claim, but who are we to argue when Mr John Edhouse, chairman of the Bradford Budgerigar Society, won three major awards at the society’s most successful show at St George’s Hall, Bradford? His gongs? “Best Bradford Member”, “The Breeder With Most Points” and “Best Opposite Sex Bird”. Stop giggling at the back. It’s time to finish. No monkeys, foxes, ocelots or budgies were harmed in the making of this column, apart from the ones that died 50 year ago, of course.
