Cop shopped

Several papers report on the supermarket shopping habits of the new chief constable of South Wales.

Peter Vaughan said he now cannot do any such shopping because of his new job.

The Telegraph says Peter Vaughan told the Police Review journal someone else would have to do his shopping "for security reasons".

But, according to the <a class="inlineText" href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article6988839.ece">Times, Mr Vaughan insists he said he would not be able to go shopping because of time constraints,</a> not security reasons.

The world's tallest man and the world's shortest have met for the first time - and their encounter provides some captivating pictures for the papers.
