A dad said he "couldn't believe his eyes" after seeing a car completely wrapped in cling film in an Aldi car park.
Paul Hart was visiting the St Helens store with his son, when he spotted the "bizarre" sight from the rear window of his car. The 33-year-old told the ECHO: "I was just waiting with my son in the car and as I looked in the rear view mirror to check on him.
"I was shocked to see this car completely wrapped up in cling film. I genuinely had to look twice, I couldn't believe it."

The strange sight attracted a fair bit of attention in the busy supermarket. Paul added: "It was just so random to see a vehicle in the middle of a busy car park just sat there wrapped like it was. So bizarre."
Paul shared a picture of the wrapped car to Facebook in the hopes of an explanation. With some speculating the move could have been an early April Fools prank.
One person said: "April fools prank? So foolish they didn't look at the date?"
However, it appears the cling film wrapping is a tradition for departing members of staff at the supermarket. The owner of the car shared a Facebook post of their own, along with an image of the car.
The caption reads: "Going to miss working with this bunch, it has been a pleasure working with you all. Thanks for putting up with me."
