BBC twisting words. Tossers.

So the BBC are twisting words and we should panic, you're saying?!

Tesco 135.9p this morning in Notts. Clubcard points anarl.

I'll be commuting by train soon as petrol is really stupidly high and I'm forever sitting in traffic jams anyway. I may as well be reading a book or daydreaming out of the window.

On my way, I've just put all my cups and saucers into the car. I'm hoping that they are suitable petrol containers
