You couldn't make it up........

For the past month, postmen have refused to deliver mail to a housing estate in Leeds because one was bitten by a stray dog.

The Post Office have said "Royal Mail is now formally suspending deliveries and we will be writing to affected customers".


How exactly will the letter be delivered?

A tenuous link maybe, but a woman (dog expert lol) on LBC last night said she never lets her dogs into the living room or bedroom. When asked why.....she answered "It's a matter of hygiene" The presenter then asked where the dogs were kept. Her answer was "In the kitchen"

Surely anything based on a source from that paper should be banned after this;

I hear the dog was very friendly and thought the postman was his "chum".
