,

compared to others. In 1960, the cost of

food

was around 35 per

cent

,

while

the cost of

leisure

was just under 20 per

cent

. Moving forward to the next two decades, both of them suffered a decrease reaching 25 per

cent

food

and approximately 17 per

cent

leisure

, but

at the end

of the period, in 2000 both of them were under 15 per

cent

. Transport is the only one who had a gradual increase from 1960 (under 10 per

cent

) to slightly over 15 per

cent

in 2000, which goes over

food

and

leisure

,

while

fuel and clothing did not suffer too many changes,

at the end

of the period 2000, both of them were under 10 per
