Teenager finds bat asleep in bra

A teenager who thought movement in her underwear was caused by her vibrating mobile phone found a bat curled up asleep in her bra.

Abbie Hawkins, 19, of Norwich, had been wearing the bra for five hours when she plucked up the courage to investigate.

This quote from Abbie might provide a clue.

"I did not notice anything as I put my bra on. The night before I had had one or two drinks and I was getting ready quickly."

Sounds like she was out late the night before, and might have been slightly hungover (or sleep deprived) when she got dressed.
