Kate Moss has had a quiet time of it recently but she was back in the news over the last week or two, firstly for her entrepreneurial skills in setting up a jam making business and secondly she is allegedly looking for a new holiday home.

Both news items featured in the Sun newspaper who’s ubiquitous source claimed that Kate had bought ‘loads of expensive equipment for making jam’.

She went on to add that there is so much fruit on the models land at her home in the Cotswold’s and she wanted to put it to good use. Apparently the jam making started as an hobby but appears to have spiralled into a business idea following favourable comments from anyone who had been given a sample.

Kate’s Damson Jam as it is known may even find its way onto the shelves of a supermarket near you, Kate has allegedly spoken to her friend Sir Phillip Green, seeking advice on how to market the product.

Despite being so busy the former Agent Provocateur model packed her women’s swimwear and headed off to an island off the coast of Italy this week, where she is reportedly hoping to buy a property.

Once again the ’source’ told the Sun that Moss had already tried to buy a plot of land on the island of Stromboli, after falling in love with the place while on a cruise in the area recently.

Stromboli is home to a live volcano which erupted as recently as April 13th 2009, but Moss seems unperturbed, the Sun source claiming that the model had already made a substantial offer on a piece of land where she would like to build her coastal home.

If she realises her dream Kate Moss will share the island with between 400 and 850 neighbours, although the place gets swarmed with visitors during the summer months.

Having just read a report from Ofcom suggesting that the average Briton spends seven hours a day watching TV, surfing the net and communicating by mobile phone, it is surprising that we are able to fit anything else into our working day.

The report on the BBC news website claims that many of us are able to squeeze in up to nine hours of media and communications use by multi tasking on more than one device at a time.

So it is no real surprise that for many of the population a trip to the local shopping centre is something that is a bit of a rarity and at this time of year with the kids on school holidays, visiting the virtual world of shopping online can be a more pleasurable way of buying.

There is not much that is not available to buy online these days and when it comes to buying the latest fashions for you and your family the options are endless.

If you want to dress like your favourite celebrity, a visit to an online store such as Espirit fashion will reward you with the latest designs for all the family at affordable prices from a secure server, allowing you to buy in confidence from the comfort of your home.

It is incredible how technology has changed our shopping habits over the last fifteen years, most of us will have experienced using Amazon or eBay at sometime or other and booking holidays or flights online is almost second nature.

Security fears are much less of an issue with online trading these days and it could be argued that using credit cards on a secure website is safer than using the card physically on the high street.

It is no wonder that more of us are happy to buy online these days, after all if we are already staying at home using the technology as the report suggests, why make the effort to go out shopping at all!
