It is with great sadness that I have to mention the loss of a few local businesses as a result of Smarmy bitch, Rachel Reeves' recent budget announcement. A local bra manufacturer has gone bust, a submarine company has gone under, a manufacturer of food blenders has gone into liquidation, a dog kennel has had to call in the retrievers and a company supplying paper for origami enthusiasts has folded. A strip club has gone tits up, Interflora is pruning its business and Dyno-rod has gone down the drain. The saddest one, though, is the ice cream van driver who was found dead, covered in nuts and raspberry sauce. He coulnd't take it anymore and topped himself ! Yes . . . . the old ones
Mrs. A. wants me to take her to Las Vegas to see The Temptations for Christmas. I can't afford that, so I'm going to Primark to get her four tops instead, which would probably be Supreme !
