10 SMILES OF THE WEEK

FOOTBALL FIESTA

The World Cup is here whether we like it or not – and since we’re taking part in the office sweepstake we have to like it now. Come on... Panama?

HERE WE GO AGAIN

And if you’re not into football, the Mamma Mia Story is on Channel 5 tonight. Well, it’s a bit like cheering on Sweden…

HEAVEN SCENT

Aromatherapy Week starts tomorrow. Treat yourself to a spa day or a bubble bath.

EXPECTO PETROLEUM

All of the Harry Potter films are going to be screened at a drive-in cinema in Glencoe. Expect to see a few Fer-Harrys and Renault Weasleys...

FAT CHANCE

CALORIE COUNTER

Cyclist Wayne Blair has completed Scotland’s North Coast 500 route twice in 95 hours. Now that’s exercise – puts our 10,000 steps a day to shame!
