McDonalds goes green???

News reaches us that British Hedgehog Preservation Society (membership 12,000) has pressured McDonalds into modifying the packaging for the McFlurry. Apparently hedgehogs in search of sweets crawl in through the hold in the top of the container and their quills get stuck. Trapped in the packaging they will die if not rescued. The society has been campaigning for the past five years; ever so politely apparently.

Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle, when contacted by this reporter and informed of the news, was moved to say "I'm well chuffed".

Of course let in not be said that the government hasn't been doing their bit for the lovable little critters.
