Recession! What Recession?
Or is it just that some people have more money than sense!
But why are people paying £129 for one of Heston Blumental’s christmas puddings, that he created for Waitrose? The story is here in the Daily Mail.
I don’t care and I suspect it’s not gluten free!
That sum would feed a family for 2 or 3 weeks! And despite the welfare state, and the way the media imply that all benefit claimants are scroungers, there are families who are genuinely in hard times who would apprecaite a a fifth of that! But I have this social conscience that I struggle with. I really cannot see how anyone canjustify spending that much on a Christmas Pudding!
