Chats
On a slightly different note this week, I would like to talk about supporting the man on the land, the citizens in the bush - our farmers.
Times have been tough in the bush lately, no one could ever have guessed that this country would ever have droughts or flooding rains, and we need to do whatever can be done to help farmers.
The starting point should be potatoes. If a restaurant has chats (i.e. small potatoes) on the menu and they cost more than ordinary potatoes, then they are the ones that should be purchased. What may only be a few dollars to us may be worth many cents to those struggling in a muddy potato paddock.
The extra money that farmers receive for chats can be spent on useful stuff, such as WD40 and new tractors.
Think of our farmers and spend your money on those small potatoes.
(As an aside, when I say "we need to do" I really mean "you need to do".)

Similarly, I don't mind paying $1.30 for petrol because I know it goes to the needy pockets of poor oil barons.
