Fairies stop developers’ bulldozers in their tracks
`Villagers who protested that a new housing estate would �harm the fairies� living in their midst have forced a property company to scrap its building plans and start again.
Marcus Salter, head of Genesis Properties, estimates that the small colony of fairies believed to live beneath a rock in St Fillans, Perthshire, has cost him �15,000. [..]
He said: �A neighbour came over shouting, �Don�t move that rock. You�ll kill the fairies�.� [..]
�Then we got a series of phone calls, saying we were disturbing the fairies. I thought they were joking. It didn�t go down very well,� Mr Salter said.’
