Hotel staff stunned after finding sheep waiting for a lift
A sheep has become famous after being spotted patiently waiting for a lift in a Welsh hotel.
Sidney the sheep was filmed by stunned workers at the Premier Inn in Holyhead after letting itself in through electric doors.
A video shows a staff member commenting "oh my god" after encountering the animal staring back at him.
"The team were rubbing their eyes when Sidney strolled in. It was a bit like a weird dream," Linda Pritchard, duty manager of the hotel, said.
Staff at the hotel said that Sidney had escaped from a nearby field, but is now back to his rightful place after the incident.
Since the incident, the sheep has become the "talk of the town", Ms Pritchard said.
Adding: "No one in any of the Premier Inns across the UK has ever heard of anything like this before.
"It's been lovely really, he's really put a smile on people's faces."
