The green will be in short supply because it was made out of people. So we will only get the red and yellow and only as a special treat will we get the green.

However the original book “Make Room! Make Room!” written by Harry Harrison in 1966 could well be prophetic the way things have gone since then. We have millions starving, GM crops and the ever widening gap between the haves and have nots. We have walled private housing estates. Policing of the masses is slowly being reduced. But woe betide the criminal if he goes for one of the haves.

I’m happy to know that it meets with your approval.

I know that memory is a funny thing and the good was always seems better in the past and the bad worst but that ketchup tastes just like the ketchup of old as I remember it. I reckon that over the years the quality of Heinz ketchup has deliberately deteriorated until what we get today. Then Heinz goes back to the original recipe and re-launches a superior product, which was the standard product all those years ago, and of course charges much more for it. A sneaky underhand way of gaining extra profit.

The makers of washing powders and detergents have been doing it for years and what is more have been getting away with it.

When they bring out a ‘new improved, whiter than white’ washing detergent/powder it always comes in a different sized package/bottle. This makes it extremely difficult for the shopper to become aware of an actual price increase.

The most recent con is the concentrated liquid. Not only is it in fact dearer but being concentrated people will use more per wash and thus have to buy more often. They do very helpfully supply a measuring cup and people may start off using it but who is to say that the recommended amount is half the recommended amount of the non-concentrated liquid?

Years ago I was told by a gardener that if you smoked you should always wash your hands before touching a tomato plant and certainly never smoke in its vicinity.
