Good morning the snow has all gone now, there's still one or two places that has a bit of snow left, and it's bloody cold out there this morning, but that apart, the snow has gone.
We'll be changing the clocks soon, not that we dress the clocks up, and have to put on different clothes, or anything like that, we have to put the clocks back or forward, I can never remember which, however there is one of those clever little ditty things to help you remember, and it goes like this. Spring back push forward, I don't think that's it. A clock in the hand is worth two in the bush, Nah, don't think so. Oh wait it's Spring up, Fall down, or something like that, but it doesn't matter, because the media will tell you what to do, they like doing that.
Our food is gonna get dearer, more expensive, and it's all down to Global Warming, & Climate Change, take your pick. Last years floods wrecked some crops, and grain or something, so there's less crop stuff on the market to sell, therefore it goes up in price. I'm not explaining this very well, but I know what I mean, which is all that matters really. I think that if there is a food stuff shortage, you know the stuff that goes to make bread & other foodstuffs, well they should put McDonalds & Burger King, to the back of the queue for the foodstuffs, because these bastards will just buy it all, and will be the only places to get food, and although there will be a foodstuff shortage ( Oh BTW, foodstuff is a technical term, I'm not gonna explain it here, but I may one day) we'll all be big fat bastards, because we all have to go McBurger DonaldKing to get foodstuff.
We've got two supermarkets in Stornoway, the Co-op, and Somerfields ( although this supermarket changes its name on a regular basis, so by the time you read this it may be trading under a new name) now the Co-op decided that all its eggs would be free-range eggs, which is a very noble gesture, but the price of half a dozen eggs has doubled. So Bacon'n'eggs is off the breakfast menu in this house just now. The Co-op says that it's doing this, because it cares about the suffering of the animals. Yeah well, and they won't sell stuff that is unethical, whatever that means? Maybe they won't sell stuff that is bad for our health, maybe they'll decide what we should eat? Maybe they'll stop selling booze, fags ( that's cigarettes, just in case you're American, you can't buy peoples of the homosexual variety in the supermarket, well not in ours anyway, although now that I think about it, there's a gap in the market there, maybe someone can fill it in, and NO, not like that, you dirty, dirty minded person that you are) crisps, and all that stuff, but if they do, the store will have a lot of empty shelves.
So I just wanna say that we should have a choice, and supermarkets if they wanna make a stand, that's fine, but don't double the fucking prices, you bunch of money grabbing bastards. Well I feel better now. Cheery...
