Co Cavan road re-opens after accident
15 December 2005 16:43
The N55 between Ballinagh, Co Cavan, and Granard, Co Longford, has reopened following an accident earlier today.
More than 5,000 chickens were spilled into the carriageway from a lorry, creating dangerous driving conditions.
A crane was brought in to remove the lorry, and a second truck was put in place to remove the poultr
Eggs had broken in the carriageway, and some of the chickens were laying there.
Diversions were in place for a time along the adjacent regional routes which are narrower and more hazardous. All restrictions have since been lifted.

Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
It must be terrible for the workers to clear a section of the road of eggs only to turn around and find the chickens had laid some more.Originally Posted by sirhamish
Certainly gives a new meaning to the term "lay-by".![]()

At first, the police saw a 4 door sedan leaving the scene, but later found out it was a coupe!

In 6 months time I can just picture it. At a dinner table somewhere between Cavan and Longford, a young lad staring up from his plate, "Ah jaysus, not fookin' chicken tonight AGAIN mammy!!"
I'm sure that a Kentucky Fried Chicken premises can be built at the eggsident site so that there will be a permanent henmorial to the scene of the fowl tragedy. I'm sure that all the cocks will rejoice in glory!!![]()
Is it true they're changing the name Cavan to Cavian.![]()
