The German embassy in London couldnt resist a pun-filled post about the fluffy new mascots. 50 runaway sheep ram-paged through a German supermarket in rural Baa-varia, causing shear mania on Monday morning, it posted on X. After breaking away from their 500-strong herd, the brazen sheep spent 20mins milling around in the Penny supermarket before ewe-turning and seeing themselves out.
