VIDEO - Gael Clichy disappointed Wenger didnt greet him in the tunnel

Prior to Man City's 1-1 draw against Arsenal on Sunday, Gael Clichy was one of several City players standing in the tunnel when Arsene Wenger passed through. Wenger appeared to spot Clichy before walking right by him without saying a word, which Clichy noticed and took exception to. Clichy played eight seasons for Arsenal before joining the steady stream of players that have moved from North London to Man City in July of 2011, to the chagrin of Wenger.

"It's only been nine years," Clichy joked with his teammates after watching Wenger go by, in reference to how long they've known each other.  (Watch from 06:50)

Giant snails seized from Nigerian at Glasgow airport (Photos)

A Nigerian traveller to Scotland recently had 36 giant snails siezed from him by Border Force officers at Glasgow Airport as he arrived on a flight from Amsterdam. The snails were seized from him because live animals require an import licence, which the man did not have. They were passed on to a rescue organisation and the passenger was warned about the restrictions on bringing the creatures into the UK. Source - DM Online

I no blame the guy. One snail for your average Nigerian restaurant na £5. However, regulation na regulation so better go buy am at your local Nigerian restaurant as opposed to breaking the law.
