Green Day: Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

Great to see that the yule logs for sale at nearby Unicorn Grocery are strictly local. They have not been brought in at the expense of huge "logmiles" from South America or China in line with this workers' cooperatives strict ethical policies.

It really is like going to a church of righteousness when we cross their sacred threshhold genuflect and collect up our sea-transported figs, un-tortured but strangely twisted vegetables, and penally diverse grains.

Living in strictly smokeless and smog-free Manchester we won't be getting our burning logs from Unicorn. Lest they are sourced from faraway Urmston or Reddish we have house policy of only burning logs we have plucked from Mother Earth with our own bare hands.

And naturally we wait until suppliers are completely sold out of the smokeless, heatless and fireless varieties before buying the real coal.

This is surely entrapment? This lot would surely never sell smokey things without a pure green motivation.

POSTSCRIPT FOR GREENISH MILLIONAIRESSES: Sorry Lynne. I should have said. These are wooden logs. Unicorn will not allow any products with refined sugar or honey to darken their doors. These are NOT chocolate yule logs, sorry. Yes I know you were probably struggling to understand. It is very confusing, yes.
