I've blogged several times before about I think that the rate of inflation is actually much higher than the official government statistics show; well, now I've noticed another scam where, rather than increase prices, some companies are reducing the size of their packs or portions in order to keep the official rate of inflation down to a minimum. This practice is grossly unfair to people on benefits or a pension whose income is directly linked to the government figures which will be even more inaccurate, showing a much lower rate than is truly the case.

Employability
@ 01 Sep. 2008 – 09:17:05
On Tuesday and Thurdsay I'm due to take two one-day courses in 'first aid' and 'health and safety.' I'm told that by doing so it will increase my employability...and will be something I can add to my C.V.

Early Morning
@ 01 Sep. 2008 – 09:14:22
Yesterday morning it was really foggy - more like November than the end of August.
For the first ever though I noticed four large cobwebs hanging from the branches of the buddleia bush. They looked quite impressive, glittering with the early morning dew that clung to them...three of them had the same pattern, but the other was different; does this mean that they were spun by two different individual spiders, or by spiders from two separate species though?
