Peterborough pet python found weeks after escape (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A pet python has been found alive more than two weeks after she escaped from her owner's home. Jacob Edwards said his ball python Xanthe went missing from his home in Bretton, Peterborough, on 11 September, but was finally found in his neighbour's garden on Tuesday. The 4.5ft (1.4m) snake had escaped through a small vent in the back of her enclosure before leaving Edwards' home through a door which had accidentally been left open. "It completely threw me off and I absolutely had no hope that she
Ten-minute favour leads to 50 years behind the bar for Ely pub regular (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A pub regular who was asked to help serve a rush of customers 50 years ago, supposedly for 10 minutes, has ended up working as a barman there ever since. In 1976, Glyn Jones suddenly found himself pulling pints at The Prince Albert in Ely, Cambridgeshire. Half a century later, he is still behind the bar Thursday to Sunday - dressed in his shirt, novelty tie and braces - with no plans to retire anytime soon. "It keeps me on my feet...

A woman who lives near a burning nature reserve says the encroaching threat to local homes is the closest she has known in 20 years. Julie Heap said she was no stranger to seeing fires at Holme Fen in Cambridgeshire, but the latest one which has engulfed half of the 660-acre woodland site has been different. "You can see the smoke coming closer, the ambulances are right outside the house and the rapid response team are all there. It's quite scary," said Heap, who lives on Station Road in Holme.
Holme Fen wildfire like 'boiling in the bag' for crews (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A fire chief has said temperatures faced by crews tackling a peatland wildfire are so high they feel like "boil in the bag" meals. The blaze at Holme Fen Nature Reserve, near Peterborough, broke out on Saturday, the second fire there in just two weeks. Area commander Wayne Swales said about 50% of the 660-acre (270-hectare) site had been burnt - and temperatures were up to 60C (140F). "It's indescribable in the centre: you've got peat on fire, you've got trees falling down around you, so we've n
