It's amazing inflation is only 4.5% when the price of everything is shooting up at 30% and product sizes are decreasing at the same rate. The guy who fiddles those figures deserves a knighthood. -

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Well done Merv. It's hard work having to photocopy that letter to the exchequer every month to explain why interest rates are staying at 0.5% and how inflation is only a 'temporary blip'.
I'd be laughing too if it wasn't for the devaluing of my warchest, which is still in sterling as I don't have a clue where to invest it that is both 100% safe (or as safe as the bank) and easy to access.
