Dough!
As if they haven't enough on their plates, gardaí had to deal with an unseasonal snowstorm on the M50 motorway this morning after a lorry shed its load of flour onto the road.
One imagines it was the last thing they kneaded this morning.

— An Garda Síochána (@GardaTraffic) The incident took place on the southbound carriage at the Blanchardstown junction at 10am.
It’s not known if gardaí dusted the scene for prints.
It is understood the flour was not self-raising, meaning it had to be lifted off the road manually.
Luckily, according to one of the wags operating the Garda Traffic Twitter account, “the clean up crews thought it was a piece of cake” and the road has since been returned to its pristine normal state.
At yeast nobody was hurt.
“An other photo from the site of our Mobile Great Irish bake off event on the M50 this morning,” tweeted our chums in Garda Traffic.
Good to see they’re putting their nose to the grindstone and not just loafing around.
(And yes, in case you are wondering, most of those dreadful puns have been shamelessly lifted from the witty folk on Twitter. So don’t blame me.)
