Choc Horror
‘ONE hundred staff at the Bank of Scotlands offices in Edinburgh were evacuated after a hold up by a chocolate Santa.
The offending article was picked up by an X-ray machine in the post room and string on its wrappers mistaken for wires.
The building was evacuated but luckily the sender of the chocolate was tracked down before bomb squad staff could destroy it.
”Everyone is jumpy these days, an employee said, and I think everyone is very aware of the need for high security. Mind you, we’d have thought whoever was checking the X-rays would have recognised Santa.”’
