A Glasgow cafe has come under criticism for selling Breaking Bad crystal meth cupcakes. The Riverhill Coffee Bar is selling the cupcakes, with a blue topping that resembles the drug manufactured by Bryan Cranston's character in the hit TV series. The chief executive of Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol and Drugs, said: "The glamorising of drugs is completely distasteful." The cafe said they weren't condoning the use of drugs: "Breaking Bad is such a huge, cult hit and this was simply us jumping on that bandwagon and making something that would appeal to fans."

Water revenue going down the drain
A reader writes: "A business, I pay a set fee to Watercare to remove my stormwater and sewage, even though I use very little water. There has been a burst water pipe outside my work for almost four weeks now, which they have been told about numerous times. It is spewing around 10 litres/minute (conservative estimate). So, that's 600 litres/hour for around 600 hours. 360,000 litres of water straight down the drain. Wonder what the fee is to remove that?"
