CHILD SAFETY WEEK
In Child Safety Week, we speak to the mum who wants to share the accident that changed their family life forever. Nicole Bowles was out shopping in Helensburgh when she placed her shopping on top of her child's pram, something she had done many times before, but this time it led to the suffocation of her son. Katrina Phillips , Chief Executive of the Child Accident Prevention Trust, wants accidents like this to stop being a taboo.

CATS WEE DAY OOT
Cat Harvey takes us on another wee day oot and this week we are off to the birthplace of the oldest functioning fountain in the UK....Linlithgow!

SALAD CREAM
Salad Cream, one of the UK's most traditional condiments may be renamed Sandwich Cream. Heinz says that only 14% of those who buy the sauce use it on salads, with many more preferring to use it in sandwiches. What's in a brand name - does re-naming products work or is it just a ploy to get us talking?
