    An 8ft 'well-preserved yeti' sells for £1,350 at auction


    An 8ft (2.4m) tall "well-preserved yeti" has been sold at auction in Somerset for £1,350.

    The specimen, described as having "some signs of wear" to its feet, was sold as part of an estate clearance in Yeovil.

    Thought to have been commissioned by a Victorian shop keeper to enhance his business, the "mystical creature" in fact had the opposite effect.

    Hahahaha that's clearly a hoax.

    The Battle of San Pasqual was a military encounter that occurred during the Mexican-American War in what is now the San Pasqual Valley community of the city of San Diego, California. On December 6 and December 7, 1846, the Californios, and their Presidial Lancers, led by General Don Andres Pico, (1810-1876), defeated Stephen W. Kearny´s US Army column of 150 men.
