Although it was removed, it kept magically re-appearing and eventually the authorities gave up.  <br><br>It has become such a landmark that the statue and its cone have featured in tourist guidebooks.

Immediately, the Lord Provost, Alex Mosson, expressed disappointment, saying that it highlighted the Glaswegian sense of humour. His predecessor, ex-Provost Pat Lally joined in and also agreed it should stay. The end result is that Wellington (and sometimes his horse too) can be seen sporting traffic cones! Not that anyone is suggesting that the Provost and ex-Provost were personally involved....]]></description>
