School meal plan is pie in the sky

KIDS at the remote Lochnell Primary School in Benderloch, Argyll, are set to get school dinners delivered by drone.

Sounds exciting, eh? Imagine something like that happening when YOU were at school!

But hang on a minute. In a country where they’ll swipe a fish supper clean out of your hands, surely a flying drone packed with food will be a very easy target for any selfrespecting seagull?

Also, given the cost of living crisis and all the foodbanks in Scotland, I think punters with rocket launchers will also pose a major threat.

Nah, I think this sounds like pie in the sky…

PS. In the event of a drone malfunction, think of the massive ecological damage school custard would unleash if it fell into the sea!
