The media are having a field day with the scare stories, remember how many times they predicted the worst winter for decades earlier this year, I suspect the same is happening now, they have to sell their rag somehow.

I heard a similar story about non branded soap recently. Up over 30% in the past month!! After yesterday no wonder the heat / eat fear is being thought more about by many!!

Jeez, just been shopping at Tesco (metro), the rise in prices is phenomenal.
Some items are 20-25% up from last week.
THe last time I bought Tagliatelli it was 50p now 85p +70%.

Time for a browse in Aldi/Lidl.

careful, what a good idea. The Government could call it the 'Percy' heating subsidy.

I wonder how Tesco are doing? Obviously, some are moving from Tesco to Aldi/Lidl, however other are moving from Waitrose/M & S to Tesco.

No profit warning as yet.

In the past everything was delivered.
Post, bread, milk, even food sometimes.

But the Supermarkets made that obsolete in the age of the car.

We are about to go back to the olden days, no central heating, less driving and using supermarkets again.

Switching heating off will be going back decades when very few had central heating.
What a bunch of softies.
It is not like fighting on the Russian front in the winter at -40 deg.

I know, old Percy as shown on the news is 95 and will die this winter from cold.
So we subsidise everyone over the age go 80..simple.
The rest, switch it off you softies, get some backbone.

Most probably people were in the 4 houses at the same time, however no delivery slots were available to make these 4 deliveries at the same time therefore the supermarkets need to radically change the way delivery slots are managed.

not much point delivering to your street loganair if your neighbours are not all in at the same time.....you should do some voluntary work if you're spending your life sticky beaking out the window all day.

In my little estate there are only 10 houses past mine.

The other day, between 18.00 & 21.50 the Tesco delivery van past my house 4 times, making 4 separated deliveries to 4 separate houses.

1. The road is already in poor condition, therefore the Tesco delivery van running along it 4 times instead of just the once to make 4 deliveries damages the road surface even more.

2. Making 4 deliveries instead of all at the one time is not fuel efficient or cost effective on the van drivers time.

3. Making 4 deliveries instead of all at the same time is not at all environmentally friendly and I thought the supermarkets were supposed to be green and environmentally friendly is why they got rid of plastic bags etc.

4. I will be writing to our local Tesco manager requesting and requiring that deliveries to a particular area are all made at the same time as not to do so is not environmentally friendly and wasting valuable expensive fuel and drivers time.

A new Lidl built in our local town main street has finally killed off the Co-op supermarket, a straight fight now between Tesco and Lidl.

BASA fish is increasingly used to replace more expensive COD and HADDOCK in supermarkets


Vietnam is the biggest exporter of BASA to supermarkets in Europe and America


Beware if eating BASA from Vietnam... industrial pollution run off into waters is off the scale in Vietnam.



Apart from the stupidity of importing food from 3000 miles away, The CEO of Iceland stated categorically this morning on BBC4 radio that the BASA they sell comes from Vietnam.

This winter, 1 million plus ordinary Brits will decide their life is not worth living.

Johnwise.
Nothing they can do.
If they underwrite customers at energy companies expense then the latter will go bust
(See all those smaller energy providers that have already failed in last 2 years)

If they underwrite energy companies, who pays. Ultimately the taxpayer ie customers as it goes on the National Debt.

Which is already a massive burden for the next generations.

'Tories stand on the sidelines as energy bills disaster unfolds - it's unforgivable'

Millions more families will be pushed into economic hardship due to the cost of living crisis. This winter, more pensioners will die from the cold and thousands of small firms face going under

loganair, fear not, Truss will save us. She will not increase Corporation Tax and will probably bale our energy bills out with more borrowed money.

Now if the country had not spent £450 billion on COVID it would be just fine. All borrowed mind.

The 'lock downs' were a monumental mistake for the healthy and the country.

No comment here on Amazon basically giving up on food retailing from shops in the U.K.

I for one am glad of that.
