In Tesco a large jar of Nestles Gold Blend Alta Rica coffee is £6.50, a smaller jar £4.60. Outside of special offers it's been this price for some time. All fine, dandy and tickety-boo I hear you say. Thing is, the large jar used to contain 200g and the small jar, 100g. They are now 190g/90g respectively.

Everything's smaller these days, it's must be my age.....
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

Wagon Wheels are smaller than they used to be.
A wanker AND a pansy apparently.
