On the subject of prices generally, Kellogg's recently introduced a 'pot cereal' range. 30g pots of cereal which you're presumably meant to take to work for consumption on your morning break. The thing is, these pots are 90p each, which works out at something crazy like £4 per 100g! People who actua...

Whilst perusing one of the toiletry aisles yesterday, I happened to notice the price of Asda multivitamins had gone up by 400%, from 74p to £3.50. How much does it even cost to manufacture 60 iddy biddy multivitamins? 40p?

Separate vitamins taken throughout the day are more beneficial anyway.

The only real example is the Spaceship one in East Anglia, and I don't think that was ever franchised. The...

What if it's a metaphor? When a figure adorns the front of a ship it is called a figurehead. A purely symbolic person at the forefront of an organisation is metaphorically called a figurehead. A corporation's main building whose use is primarily functional and which I would argue lies at the heart ...

The wooden ornament was a carving of a person or an animal - a sentient being. The metaphor doesn't really work when you're talking about a studio complex. Not necessarily, the navy had the royal crest at the front of ships... Okay, technically the crest was a figure as well. The dictionary says a ...
