WEST Fife shoppers had an early festive treat when Santa turned up at the new Tesco in Dunfermline the weekend before Christmas.

Santa posed for photographs and handed out gifts kindly provided by Tesco, with visitors from as far afield as Lochgilphead and Greenland stopping to say hello.

The jolly old gent’s visit was organised by Dunfermline Carnegie Rotary Club, who thanked generous shoppers for donating more than £670.

The money was distributed to local families and homeless people in need at Christmas.
