BBC: "strange movements in her underwear" - it was a sleeping bat

[muriel_volestrangler]

A teenager who thought movement in her underwear was caused by her vibrating mobile phone found a bat curled up asleep in her bra.

Abbie Hawkins, 19, of Norwich, had been wearing the bra for five hours when she plucked up the courage to investigate.

When she did, she found a baby bat in padding in her 34FF bra. The hotel receptionist said she was shocked but felt bad for removing the "cuddly" bat.

"I did not notice anything as I put my bra on. The night before I had had one or two drinks and I was getting ready quickly.

"I felt quite sorry for it. Perhaps I should have left it there and given it a good home."

7. Actually, it was number 2 on the 'most read' list of BBC stories this morning

And it's now number 1 on the 'most emailed' list - I can't imagine why ... :evilgrin:

I don't think the woman was asleep - just a bit hungover when she put the bra on in the morning. Baby bats may be quite cute - you never know (though I presume the idea is it was old enough to have flown into the bra when it was on the washing line).
