LIFE'S A BEACH: Laguna Beach in Irvine, California is certainly visually different to Irvine Beach Park.

IRVINE has been offered a hand of friendship this week - from its namesake in California!

Representatives of Irvine, California, say they are keen to establish the transatlantic friendship as a way of increasing 'global cooperation and communication'.

And South of Scotland MSP Aileen Campbell has been approached by the Californian city to gauge opinion on this side of the water.

Aileen was contacted by Emma Green, Multicultural Affairs Officer for the City of Irvine, California, who said in an email: 'I am writing to seek your assistance in establishing a friendship city relationship with one of the towns you represent, Irvine, North Ayrshire."

Check out this week's Times, out today, for the full story.
