...yesterdays posting about the Dragon sausages, my early morning listening, radio 4, brought another interesting 'This is madness' piece.
It seems, and this is hot from radio 4, so its gotta be fact, that a lady in her little olde shoppe in the country somewhere, was advised by her local 'trading standards' officer that she had to amend her description of one of her items for sale to include the words 'may contain nuts'.
No bad thing I hear you exhale, until I tell you that the new description had to be added to....... 'Bird Peanuts'.
Yep, the sort of peanuts you buy loose to put in your bird feeder now have to tell us that they 'May contain nuts'
Madness.
There were another couple of examples but I can't for the life of me remember at the mo'
'Av a good weekend all.
D'poos. xxx.
