I had a dead swan yesterday right in the middle of the motorway which slowed everyone down - just after J20 on the M5 south bound

Crazy black man riding his bike no handed, never seen him touch the handlebars a he uses them to dance... While he us also singing. he's a legend round here (has a fb page with a silly amount of likes) you just have to accept he's there and that he's crazy, so you stay back till he turns off as he tends to swerve across the road.

As per OP - often get garden full of sheep. I ignore them.

Most usual cause for me being late is the cat climbing into bet and wanting a cuddle. Really.

Also, like OP, live in country and down a single track road so frequently delayed by sheep or cattle.

a while back one of those Fathers for Justice was dressed as Batman sitting on top of a gantry on M25. That caused a hell of a delay !

I got stuck behind a Lockheed Hercules a few months back. They're not as fast on the road as in the air.
