I can’t think of any ‘remote fields’ in Bradford, what with it being a City and all, so I wonder just where about this activity is taking place.

 Ilkley is NOT Bradford no matter what the councillors in Bradford City Hall may think >:( it’s not even in the same Dale ffs. And anyway, the ducks would get in the way if they tried anything on the moor.

Honestly, I'm quite sure I'd not have posed for the photo.

There's really quite a lot wrong in that story. I feel soiled just having read it.

Oh my god, the dog just shat in my mouth. Quick get the camera while I call the local newspaper.

I usually work on the assumption that dog owners have a very different relationship with shit than normal people.  But not that different.

I'm not sure that was a circumstance for which the term I believe you have in mind would apply, though.  ;D

I am far too aged to qualify, or indeed to writhe and grunt on the floor. If it wasn't disgraced former Defence Secretary Liam Fox, then maybe it was that other local MP, Jacob Rees-Mogg, indulging in some pranks with the local peasantry, or releasing a prisoner from the dungeons?
