		<description>Living as I do beside a stream that wends it way down the valley towards the sea and the sealions, I can assure you Ms Clunking Fist, that plastic bags are well represented in the rubbish that gets dumped in the river upstream. Not all bad news however as I use them for carrying all the plastic water bottles that also wash up on the river banks. sigh.</description>

		<description>How much energy was consumed in making that video? Stupid watermelons: do as we say, not as we do.
The stupid customer should be buying ORGANIC milk in REUSABLE glass bottles. THAT would &quot;change the world&quot; better than fussing over a plastic bag. You do KNOW that all the fuss over the bags is misplaced: it is discarded fishing equipment that is responsible for all those marine deaths, not plastic bags. Still, believe the myth.</description>

		<description>Thank-you Frog; a wonderful way to start the day with a few belly laughs. Only the Brits can do this po-faced humour so well, it reminds me of the Monty Python sketch where the guy hits someone with a large trout. I am giggling away still. Have a great weekend.

		<description>Thank god it was only a corrective tap rather than a smack. !
Regardless someone should call Sue Bradford as it’s clearly a breach of the act and no law of common sense could possibly apply. Besides, she’s buying dairy produce and clearly deserves a smack….?… Hang on………cant do that??

Well - FFS what’s worse????, buying dairy produce, corrective smacks, or using plastic bags?

Now I’m really confused. Maybe the greens could put out some corrective social policy to set all our dopey minds at rest?…. Hmm?</description>
