My girl-friend has just come back from our local parade of shops. She only popped down for a bra with extra long straps, and a pair of shoes. She said whilst queuing, she had a nice conversation with another lady about birds, but told me she did feel very uncomfortable as a man very near by kept looking at her with a strange grin.

A friend of mine last week popped into his local shop and amongst other things plonked six lemons on the counter, only to be told by the shop assistant he could only have three. He explained that lemons helped with his cancer ( terminal brain cancer) ( not sure how, but apparently it does help) to which the shop assistant replied " I don't care about your cancer, you can only have three of any one item ":ohmy:

I've want to ask a question about your post, but really wouldn't know where to start :shrug:

LEVEL 3 - The absolute f***wit who takes pleasure in encroaching on people's space, knowing it's making the other person uncomfortable and then laughs when you politely ask them to observe this.

Come the revolution Bro, you'll be this first up against the wall and bloody shot, this sin't a f***ing joke, it's real!

Worse...
Little old dear: at the meat fridge selecting which specific packet of bacon to buy (side cheesiness: look with your eyes not your f*"king hands).
Me: respectful, social distancing gap, stood back, (not so) patiently waiting so I can approach said fridge.
Bellcheese behind me:. "Grrr, tut, grr" at me for standing still in the middle of the aisle, waiting for little old dear.

I've not been in a big supermarket since this whole thing kicked off, I'm using the local bakers, greengrocers, co-op and tesco express.

Yesterday I had to go get a loaf and some milk. Queued to get in the co-op. In front of me was some young HERBERT (baseball cap and earbuds) who, rather than follow a path of going up one aisle and down the next, played a game of co-op pinball, pinging all round the shop; he must have brushed past me three times then stood right behind me in the queue. *******.

This, and when you say "excuse me could you keep a 2m distance" they just smirk at you

Getting our food delivered by a local fresh food wholesaler who usually supplies the restaurant trade. The freshness of the veg, fruit and meat is amazing. Bread, milk, eggs as well. The prices are unbelievable, so much cheaper than the supermarkets and totally free from bellcheesery.

Member of staff on my last Tesco visit - was cleaning a shelf directly under something I wanted - I asked if I could grab a box and he said 'of course, go ahead............', but simply stayed standing where he was, right in front of the boxes I was pointing at.............

Most people were respecting the rules but there were a couple of gormless goons that thought it was OK to fill the gap between distancing people with themselves and their trollies. The same ones kept doing it at various points around the store. Yep, up against the wall..................

Up against the wall for saying “can I grab”!!

What would they have done if he had Lyme Disease too?

All these wise guys that think they're winning the game of life? They have zero self-awareness. And the acute lack of awareness that should they somehow survive their scummy life into their later years, that it'll be the decent people that they've pushed in front of all their scummy lives that will be changing their shitty bedsheets in their end of life care home. Maybe then the ****s will finally understand

Sadly never going to happen.
These Tw*ts always seem to get away with it.

In my case the woman in question had taken an absolute age to get through her checkout. Including disappearing for 5 minutes to pick up something she had forgotten to pick up.
Needless to say she hadn't forgotten to pick up 3 packs of 16 toilet rolls. ( there were none left when i looked for some).


Got to say I sympathise massively with the vast majority of supermarket staff, who must be putting up with shit loads of unwarranted grief at the moment.

Just remember to thank them for going to work as nobody is giving them a round of applause but they are at risk without much protection and mostly near minimum wages.
Same applies to many other workers too.

Tonight’s clap is for all of them :


‘Tonight's Clap for our Carers event, which is scheduled for 8pm, will concentrate on healthcare workers, emergency services, armed services, delivery drivers, shop workers, teachers, waste collectors, manufacturers, postal workers, cleaners, vets, engineers and 'all those who are out there making an unbelievable difference to our lives in these challenging times'.’

Brighton factually.....
There are so many idiots who think the suggested space between people does not apply to them, and sadly it seems to be the elderly baby boomers who seem to nit give a feck....

Some poor lady in Sainsbury’s Shoreham tonight was struggling crying on the phone to her husband about people not sticking to the rules, getting to close. She was not coping at all, I felt really sorry for her.

Made sure I thanked the staff and allowed people to get what they needed keeping my distance, it’s nice to be polite.

We went down to our local parade of shops, to get a vew bits.
I waited outside, whilst my wife queued up to enter shops.
In true Jasper Carrott 'nutter on the bus' styleee, a local nut, with tits hanging on her and knees and wearing slippers, joins the line behind my wife and starts blaming the birds for Covid-19.
As I'm standing to the side, I have a great enjoyment in watching my wife have a conversation with the local nut.
Our family does seem to attract these types :wozza:

Photos next time please

Went to my local shop just to get some eggs. Couple of dicksprings standing right on front of the shelves having the sort of irrelevant conversation only certain idiots can have.

“Excuse me, please can I get to the eggs please?”

No response.

So I stand there in an obvious way while they keep gassing. Eventually I am spotted and they give me a filthy look and move a millimetre down the aisle.
