Flower Bakery - Still Going Strong


Flower Bakery in Glasgow's Govanhill is still going from strength to strength despite all the trials and tribulations Covid-19 has thrown at their new, start-up business.

"First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn't... P
