ALL of us like chocolates. But the next time you bite into a chocolate bar, do remember that the average income a cocoa farmer earns a day is probably less than the price of a medium-sized bar that is in your hands. About Rs 100 ($1.3) a day is what a cocoa farmer in West Africa earns.

A FAMOUS landmark atop North Berwick Law was in need of repair, reported the East Lothian Courier of December 8, 1995. The whale’s jawbone at the summit of North Berwick Law is to be repaired at a cost of about £700. The condition of the well-known local landmark has deteriorated over the decades and the town’s community councillors are keen to ensure it is saved for posterity. They approached the district council with their concerns and Macmerry-based specialists Ralph Plastics was contracted to do the job. They will restore the jawbone with fibre glass, and the protective railings around it will be repaired by Daw Engineering of Fenton Barns.
