Kaye Adams asks whether Sweden's nighttime nurseries could be the answer to unsociable working hours. Would you use overnight childcare?
Sweden is well known for being a family friendly country, but could we replicate some of their childcare services, like their night time nurseries. Almost 5,000 Swedish children use these facilities and hospital, restaurant, transport workers and shop staff are among those who benefit from the service. Are Sweden's night nurseries the solution to unsociable hours? Would you use a night time nursery for your child?
Kaye speaks to the creator of the robotic peregrine falcons being installed in Edinburgh's newly refurbished Waverley Station. Network Rail have spent Β£9,000 in the hope it will scare off seagulls and pigeons, and stop them fouling on the 24,000 new panes of glass.
And growing up London Mayor Boris Johnson told his mother he wanted to be "World King". Kaye asks what did you want to be when you grew up?
