Job offers flood in for girl, 5, fined over lemonade stall
A GIRL of five whose lemonade stand was shut down by the council has received dozens of offers to run her stall at other events.
Business professor Andre Spicer’s daughter sold the homemade drink near their home to people going to Lovebox festival in Victoria Park, east London, last week.
But after half an hour four council officials told her to shut up shop and handed Professor Spicer a £150 fine. Tower Hamlets council has since cancelled the fine and hand-delivered an apology note.
The family tweeted: ‘Dozens of festivals, markets and businesses have offered us the opportunity to set up a lemonade stand.’
London’s Borough Market wrote: ‘In all seriousness, would your daughter like to sell some lemonade at Borough Market? We’d love to make that happen.’
