Finish your food, or get fined for charity!
 A Nigerian restuarant in east London has come up with a new angle on your Mum always telling you to finish the grub on your plate - it fines customers who don't eat all their food, and donates the money straight to Oxfam. The owner of Suya Express in Dalston says he was fed up with people overloading their plates at his all-you-can-eat-buffet, then not eating all of it. As he puts it (very succinctly): "There are lots of people in Africa who don't have the opportunity to see this amount of food, let alone to buy it." He fines them £2.50 a go, which goes direct to the Oxfam shop across the road. What a legend!
