"Tesco's new cavernous Extra store at Glasgow's Silverburn shopping centre is not just attracting record numbers of shoppers. The local pigeon population too has taken to perusing its aisles for 'every little bit' it can find.
"The Diary was astonished to be joined at the croissant counter by one of the said doos complete with mandatory limp. On reporting the matter to the baker, the Diary was told that the birds usually find their way out again. At the checkout, however, we asked what would happen if they refused to leave what must have been the avian equivalent of Xanadu. 'If they don't go we call in the man with the gun.'"
