Five-foot crocodile found ‘resting’ in bathroom
A five-foot crocodile recently managed to make its way to a residential area in the state of Uttarakhand, where it entered a house and left residents shocked. A video that is being widely viewed on social media shows the huge reptile inside a bathroom in the city of Sitarganj, where its presence led to panicked reactions from onlookers.
The reptile was reportedly found inside the bathroom of a house situated on Sidcul Bypass Road in Sitarganj on Saturday.
The family which discovered the crocodile inside their bathroom panicked and began shouting on seeing it, which attracted neighbours to their place. A crowd soon gathered at the spot and tried to drive the reptile away, but their efforts proved to be in vain and the unwelcome guest refused to budge.
A video filmed at the scene shows the crocodile resting calmly next to two buckets of water inside the bathroom.
After the crowd of onlookers proved to be unsuccessful in driving the crocodile away, the forest department was contacted to help remove it. A team from the forest department then reached the spot to safely remove the reptile and released it into the Surai Forest.
The presence of the crocodile was attributed to heavy rainfall during the monsoon season, which often leads to overflowing rivers.
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I AM in love with Adwoa, a 25-year-old banker. She has a 10-month old daughter and I am not perturbed about that. She said the father of the child broke up with her even before the child was born. I loved her even before I knew she had a child, and when she told me she had a baby, it didn’t change anything. Love was still love, and care still flowed between us.
I spent some nights with her, and the behaviour of her baby makes me feel like there’s another man she knows. She cries when I pick her up.
The same thing happens when she wakes up and sees me in bed with her mother. I’m not comfortable with the way that baby looks at me. It’s as though there’s someone else looking at me through her eyes. She doesn’t blink an eye. She looks at me as if I’m not the one she’s expecting to see. Is this normal?
Papa, Swedru.
Dear Papa,
IT’S understandable you’re feeling a bit uneasy about the baby’s behaviour. Given the situation, it’s likely the baby is just picking up on your energy or adjusting to a new face.
Ten-month-old can be particular about strangers. Try engaging with her more during calm moments, like playtime or when she is fed. Build a bond through activities she enjoys and have an open chat with your girlfriend about how you’re feeling; she might notice things you’ve missed. The intense staring could be curiosity; babies are like that sometimes. Take it easy, and don’t overthink it.

A man who bed-wets went to see a psychiatrist…
Psychiatrist: Does a dream usually precede your bed-wetting?
Man: Yes.
Psychiatrist: Tell me how it happens.
Man: A little demon appears to me in my sleep and says, “Hey… Let us pee.” Then, I wake up to see the bed wet with my urine.
Psychiatrist: This is what you must do. If the demon comes tonight and tells you “let us pee”, just reply him that you have already peed.
The man left and returned the following day with tears streaming down his face.
Psychiatrist: Why are you weeping? Didn’t my therapy work?
Man: You have worsened my case!
Psychiatrist: What? How?
Man: When the demon came, I told him I’d already peed. Then he said, “OK, let us sh*t.”
