Hmmm...odd decision, what are they hoping to acheive?
A nine-year-old girl who became an internet hit after blogging about her school dinners claims she has been banned from taking photographs of her meals.
Martha Payne, from Argyll, began publishing photographs of her school canteen lunches on 30 April.
Her NeverSeconds blog got more than two million hits (http://neverseconds.blogspot.co.uk/) in just a few weeks.
But in a post published on Thursday evening, Martha said her headteacher told her not to take any more photos.
Under the headline "Goodbye", the post stated: "This morning in maths I got taken out of class by my head teacher and taken to her office. I was told that I could not take any more photos of my school dinners because of a headline in a newspaper today.
"I only write my blog not newspapers and I am sad I am no longer allowed to take photos. I will miss sharing and rating my school dinners and I'll miss seeing the dinners you send me too."
Martha gave each meal a 'food-o-meter' and health rating, and also counted the number of mouthfuls it took for her to eat.
The council's decision to impose the ban came after the Daily Record newspaper published a photograph of Martha alongside chef Nick Nairn under the headline "Time to fire the dinner ladies.."
Martha had been using the blog - which she started with the help of her father Dave - to raise money for the Mary's Meals charity.
