At least the Muslim women who look like letterboxes won’t need face masks as they have their hijabs. Result.

They should water down this over 70s thing and say that for example for the first 2 hours of local shops/banks/libraries etc trading only the over 70s are allowed to go. There are so many ways the system is going to break down over this one isolation rule alone, people in flats will get no...

Every UK person I’ve seen wearing a mask has not been wearing gloves, which makes no sense to me.

Cycled past it today, first time since those flats and maisonette/houses were built. Those black, new build houses at the South Stand end of Goldstone Lane must have cost an absolute fortune.

My thinking is going to visit but talking at a distance maybe outside the property so there is that face to face contact but with limited risk. I’ll also be doing the groceries and newspaper run, home deliveries will be stretched to the limit, more than they already are.

Contact discouraged with the over 70s.

Indeed Uncs. My folks aren’t going to be around forever and the mind goes all-ways, especially as I feel that time with them is precious at their age.

No mention of restaurants, but they surely fall under the umbrella...

Loads of free range eggs in the Marina ASDA earlier, unlike in other supermarkets. I think the typical ASDA clientele must think they’re some kind of foreign muck or exotic brand of egg so steer well clear. Battery hens eggs by contrast were sold out.

Isn’t ‘SouthDB’ an anagram of ‘Wilfried Zaha is a cock’? Could be wrong of course.

Really struggle to comprehend the obsession with spending money on this stuff. Isn’t a comprehensive hand washing routine just about as effective? (Could be wrong). Either way, unless you touch absolute nothing when you’re out and about you’re going to constantly need to keep reapplying it...

Health food shops too. Some great little independent ones around the county.

Like much of the content on neurotic threads like this you mean?

Ernest got ‘driven off’ here as a one trick comedy pony for much less. How can this keep on happening?

How can they possibly enforce people staying inside for 4 months? It’s not remotely feasible. Do they arrest the over 70s for taking a walk out? Utterly ludicrous. You can’t force people or police it. This is Johnson’s ‘Churchill moment’. (Sorry GCCM)

Not the Doritos! What are the Whitehawk mums gonna serve up for breakfast and dinner now!? :wink:

I abhor excess stockpiling at a cost to others; that said, what people aren’t factoring in when they see loaded trolleys is that a lot of people are potentially buying food for more than one household and potentially for elderly relatives.

Tesco, Fred, just ‘Tesco’

Let the neurotic shopping blitz begin again gang, 55 minutes to go, every girl for themselves. What they should do is program the tills, especially the self-service the way they do with headache tablets etc. so that you can only buy two packs of pasta or one of bog roll.

Woman in Lewes Tesco 0600hrs yesterday buying loads of boxes of tissues and multi packs of kitchen roll in lieu of loo roll, of which there was none. Flushing kitchen roll is just going to cause fatbergs.
