Sticky problem for council Saturday October 28, 10:11 AM
More than two tonnes of semolina fell on a seaside town after a factory silo malfunctioned and blasted the grain into the air.
People living in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, woke up to find a dusting of white grain covering roads and pavements.
The problem proved a major headache for Great Yarmouth Borough Council because as staff tried to clean the semolina away with water it simply turned into the much-loathed dessert.
