From time to time circumstances may seem that a particular product e.g., bananas are more expensive in supermarkets than the small shops. So GO AND BUY ELSEWHERE so...

    Slithering in the seashore: Wildlife expert warns tourists of snake sightings on beaches

    Snakes generally just want to be left alone to get on with their own business which is mostly basking in the sunshine and eating. If you come across a snake in the wild simply stop, do not make any sudden movements, and gently walk around them (at least 2 metres away) and they will also move...
