Plea over jellyfish crop circle


A 250m-long crop circle of a jellyfish has appeared on farmland.

The owners of the land in Oxfordshire have urged visitors to stay away from the circle, which is also 60m (197ft) wide, to avoid further crop damage.

Sally Ann Spence and husband Bill, who own Berry Croft Farm near Ashbury, say hundreds of visitors have been trampling over their field.

They said it was "beautiful" but the flattened crops were now "useless" and the damage would cost about £600.

'Religious' tourists planning prayer trips to the site beware...the Holy Jellyfish looks ominously atheist!

12. Once I found the FSM, I was enlightened
His almighty sauciness engulfed me, and I was at peace with the universe.

No, I haven't gone all noodly! :rofl:
