SHEER CLASS
Ed Sheeran has bucked the pop star trend of hooking up with models – and is marrying his childhood sweetheart instead. Just Perfect!

ROBO COP-OUT
A robot has been fired from a store in Edinburgh – because customers found it confusing. Looks like humans have been saved from the scrapheap after all ...
SUM ACHIEVEMENT

HOME SWEET HOME
A St Andrews B&B that greets guests with a nice gin and tonic has been voted one of the world’s best. We’ll drink to that!
