Pauline the pigeon puts on breakfast time show

BREAKFAST time diners at a Limerick coffee shop were sent scattering yesterday morning when one regular went into a tailspin of excitement.

Eyewitnesses, in the Coffee 4 Two bistro in Catherine Street, said the customer they know as ‘Pauline’ went into a sudden flap and banged herself off windows and tables before being ejected by the manager, Brian Hegarty.

Brian said: “She comes in most mornings and usually comes as far as the door. But yesterday she ventured in among the customers and lost the run of herself.”
