In 2002, according to RSPB figures, there were just 300 breeding pairs of greylag geese in Orkney. Six years later that number had increased to a startling 10,000. Fast forward to today and the resident goose population - and no-one knows quite why - has soared to a staggering 64,000. That's an awful lot of beaks and big webbed feet trampling grass and eating crops.

A Spanish TV reporter who told her colleagues live on air that she was "not coming to work tomorrow" while clutching a winning lottery ticket had only won a fraction of the total prize.

Natalia Escudero, who works for public broadcaster RTVE, started screaming on camera - before later learning she had won just €5,000 ($5,550; £4,285).
