Lesson 61 The cost of living
Mrs Blake: The cost of living's simply dreadful, isn't it?
Everything's going up all the time.
Every time I come to the supermarket,
I find prices have increased.
Mother: It's shocking! Simply shocking!
Mrs Blake: Look at these frozen beans.
I paid 10 pence for a packet a monthe ago.
Now they're 11 pence.
I knew they would go up again.
Mother: Look at this jam, Marion.
I suppose it's gone up, too. See? I told you it had.
Mrs Blake: I hope this tinned fruit hasn't gone up.
My husband loves it.
Mother: I'm afraid it has, Marion. It's gone up a penny.
Mrs Blake: Oh dear!
Mother: Here's something that hasn't gone up.
These biscuits are still the same price.
I'm glad they are because the children love them.
Mrs Blake: I'm afraid you're wrong, Betty.
They haven't gone up,
but there are fewer in each packer!
