I feel sorry for parents nowadays, as most of our food has been horribly tampered with. Blooming additives, chemicals and artificial flavourings. And if one has allergies in the family, I imagine it makes food-buying a nightmare.

I usually buy some Easter treats for our neighbours-across-the-road's two little children. (They can have chocolate) But I've noticed that Cadbury's cream eggs seem to have shrunk! So I get them a Lindt bunny each (the chocolate seems to be of a better quality) and a colouring book.

I didn't know Camp coffee was made from chicory!

I gave an ice-cold can of Diet Coke to our lovely window cleaner Andy and his assistant this morning. We always keep a few in the fridge for the postman if he looks a bit hot and tired, and any couriers who deliver a parcel, also the dustmen on Bin Day. Everyone seems to like a can of Coke!
