Blue-sky thinking always has a cloud

Where would you go on a shopping spree?

The word, ‘spree,’ says to me, shopping therapy, buying things you wouldn’t normally, maybe don’t need.

So don’t do it!

Such purchases become unsatisfying, almost before you have reached home and ignore the plight of people unable to afford essentials.

I have just done a shopping spree, on ebay.co.uk. Two CDs from musicmagpie.co.uk, less than a fiver including postage, pure recycling, I feel green,

but

the artists and record companies will earn nothing, so that can’t work in the long term, and I haven’t helped poor people.

Someone tell me what to do. Blue-skies always get a cloud sometime.
