The Monkey, the N11 and me

From the Irish Times:

AA Roadwatch confirmed that it received a call to its traffic hotline at 8.15am from a member of the public reporting that there was a monkey on the southbound carriageway of the N11 at Kilmacanogue.

“By 8.35am we found out there was a place nearby that keeps monkeys, so we thought it could be true,” a spokeswoman said.

“By 8.45am the gardaí in Bray confirmed there was a monkey on the road but he was caught, caged and cleared by 9am.”

A Garda spokesman confirmed the report. No further details about the monkey’s origins were immediately available.

As usual, we are first with teh pics:

    That’s ridiculous, everyone knows that is not the N11. It’s the R383 between Grangemockler and Nenagh.
