Water, MUSTARD flour (21%), sugar, salt, WHEAT flour, turmeric, acid (citric acid). Thats why it's inferior... Nothing to do about being pretentious, 'patronising' It's Sweet and nasty.. Foxy

And my Belkin router used to keep dropping out every few minutes.. Possibly due to interference from wireless phone and running router at 2.4M Now using 5m. Foxy

The Duster Sellers act as being self motivated but they all seem to have the same trays of goods having been pre prepared for them.. I'm not sure they themselves get very much money from their efforts.. It seems like a 'Fagin' style set up to me.. 'My Dear.. ' I have bought the Yellow Dusters in the past and they are very poor quality... DulwichFox

The slower people drive the closer together they drive and pollution becomes more concentrated. Add to that the problem by more traffic controls cars are at a standstill with lights at red for up to 2 mins. Then pulling away with a 20 mph limit congestion builds up.. Cars also create more pollution at 20 mph with higher revs and being in lower gear. and an increase in noise.. DulwichFox

So was all the disruption really worth it... Would anyone of lost any sleep if this work had never taken place when more urgent repairs to the pavement further along the road opposite the Co-op needs addressing. Foxy -
Whether plastics bags are free or 5-10p they are still going to be around... People paying ?30-40 or more for shopping are not going to worry about 5-10p added to their bill. Unless every time they are told they will be paying for the bags they will not even be aware of it.. I have used my Tesco Canvas Natural Green Bag 'bags for life' for about 5 years or more. They are now very worn but as far as I know they are no longer available so wont be replaced.. I buy the Strong Green plastic bags at the Co-op which are 10p and re-usable time and time again.

I was called a Social Butterfly... I do not fleet from coffee shop to coffee shop. and only perform magic to order and in fact seldom carry any cards / tricks with me.. Doubt you have ever seen me despite being out and about most days and out in the bars and restaurants EVERY night. for the last 40 years.. More like an 'Elusive Butterfly' DulwichFox
