By Magnus Bennett & Frankie AllanResidents in Glasgow housing estates could soon be hearing the sound of mooing cows and clucking hens outside their homes.
"Since I opened seven years ago, they've closed the local job centre, the social work department, three banks and a pub. That turns a lot of people away from the area." "You used to be able to make a beef sausage quite cheaply. Now, you can't because the price of a bag of rusks has gone up by over 40%, and the price of seasoning has gone up by 35% to 40%.Gary spent thousands of pounds restoring an old butcher's shop van
Gary says he came up with the idea of a mobile butcher shop "on a whim", and invested the last of his savings on a second-hand fully kitted-out van from Wales.Image caption,Gary has put his shop up for sale but doesn't expect any takers anytime soon. He plans to keep it going, at least until his lease runs out in just over a year's time.
