Spensthrift or economiser?
My rolling in the left-over shaving cream to one end and cutting the tube in two parts was being observed in disbelief by my 11-year-old grandson; but when I explained that the remaining part of the gel would suffice for leathering my beard for at least 10 days, he was really impressed and said: “Gandhi ji, too, used to utilise for rough work papers printed or typed on one side!” Now, I don’t mind if someone labels me as a `spendthrift’ as I consider myself to be an `economiser’.
