And the second big news story of the day...

Lost. Found. Lost again!

Earlier this week the donkey Jesus rode into Jerusalem went missing again. Police fear that this might be a celebrity kidnapping, but as yet no word has been received about the donkey’s location.

Arthur Fishmeal, the donkey’s owner said today, “He’s a really good worker that donkey. Our business is suffering. It’s costing us a small fortune having to hire transport. Pots and pans don’t deliver themselves you know! Even though he had one leg shorter than the others, he was one key donkey.”

The donkey shot to fame when he became the impromptu vehicle of choice of Jesus of Nazareth. The event caused quite a stir as crowds gathered and cheered him along the road into the capital. Jerusalem residents were less impressed.

“A prophet can’t come from Galilee,” they said, “It’s unheard of.”

The Pharisees were also indignant and demanded that Jesus quiet the crowd. He responded, telling them that if the crowd stopped, the stones would cry out!

If you see this donkey contact Sergeant Auspex Perspex on Jerusalem VVV-IXIXIX-IXIXIX.

A small reward may be offered for the safe recovery of this valuable animal.
