A PENSIONER businessman who bombarded a woman with unwanted messages after a first date has been found guilty of stalking.

- By Gordon Currie

Michael Paton — who owns a string of car body repair shops — suggested they fly to his villa in Spain and that he take her shopping for a Rolls-Royce.

The 76-year-old also offered to take wine store worker Muriel Guthrie to Australia but refused to listen when she asked him to stop contacting her.

Paton — who was managing director of Elder & Paton — was fined £800 and ordered to stay away from his victim for three years.
