I Like it. Only us oldies will understand or appreciate this.
Thanks

I am an oldie and think most things are better, less wasteful and less
polluting than when I was a kid.

Les wastefull ??...you must be joking!

We had one bin in the old days, now you see black, green pink and white
bags at the roadside and a fleet of refuse collecting lorries in
formation
like the Red Arrows going round on collection day!

How much pollution these lorries generate needs some explanation.


Which leads me to thinking.When I was a lad all parcels were delivered by
the post office who still deliver here most days. However last Wednesday
we
had four different couriers deliver four different items as well as the
postman bringing the letters. How much pollution did that lot create?

That's not the point. It enriches politicians' cronies -- ooh, gosh,
sorry: I don't know what came over me! Of course, I mean it provides
consumers with Choice.

So did the privatisation of the Electricity Supply Industry. We had the
choice of service provider - competition was going to make things lest
costly. Now (please note Mr Parkinson) that former Electricity Boards are
being gobbled up into Super Supplier Agnecies.

Competition and more choice - Humbug !!
