Hilarious Facebook post warns of horse with ‘permanent erection’ plaguing an Irish town

Refugees are pouring into Europe, global stock markets are fluctuating wildly and the Earth is still hurtling towards climate change-ageddon.

But in one Irish town there's a far bigger problem at hand. It came to light on a community Facebook page for the town of Balbriggan in Dublin - and it sounds serious. One worried Facebooker sent a warning out to the 2,500 members about a rather frisky horse on the loose. "His big trunk just hanging there for all the world to see" is our favourite line in the post, it's too good. If you are missing a particularly horny horse at the moment, you know where to find him.
