Keep your nose clean

No, this isn't Chewbacca, it's Greyfriars Bobby.

Intrigued by an article in the paper this morning and also on the BBC website about the refurbishment of the statue because poor wee Bobby's nose had been rubbed so often by tourists that the base metal was shining through, I determined to check out the nose job.

As you can see, not much success. Which begs the question - are the purveyors of news telling porkies or has the whole thing been a complete waste of time - and should Bobby demand compensation for his botched nose job.

I'm anxious to sniff out the truth.
