Coronavirus (Covid 19)

stack yourself some oxygen in the home if you can -

it will be no use.If you get to the stage where you need oxygen , you will better be at the hospital.
Apparently you will have to be induced in a coma, paralyze the lung muscles and mechanical ventilators will blow oxygen in and out of the lungs like a balloon while you lay there face down like a puppet. :-)

We always book online shopping via Sainsbury's... Tried to book a delivery today, and no slots for 3 weeks.

Same here.

Ocado website and app are both in meltdown.

The Sainsbury's up the road has never seen so many people pass through its doors.

Haven't tried the bug Tesco yet. Well, I say I. My butler goes and does the needful.

Ocado are only allowing existing customers to place orders.
I had to wait in a 15 min queue yesterday just to use their website.

After seeing free Ocado slots start to drift last week I managed to bag a weekly reserved slot although there’s still no guarantee as I’m seeing a lot of people had their deliveries cancelled last minute today.

Ah good to know. I tried once or twice over the weekend but didn't really have a need to place an order but I do like to chuck things in my basket as I think of them.

Friends of mine said they have a few future orders set up from before the world when mad but couldn't edit them. Maybe that will soon be possible again.

Went to sainsburys on friday. This old guy gets to top of the travelator thing, I am at the top of the stairs. He then proceeds to sneeze very loudly without doing it into his elbow or a tissue. I swore loudly in his direction. I then kept on seeing him coming towards me in each isle so I would do an about turn and mutter profanities.

Plenty of bare shelves but I got most things, dry goods etc.

Went to Asda on sat expecting worse but actually they had far more stuff, fresh meat, pasta. I even got some kitchen roll. Ordered some flour online last night so I can make my own pasta. Down to six loo rolls, so may venture out to find some.

Unprecedented times we are living in.

Well BGG & I have both been sent home to WFH as we are on the "at risk" list. At least we can both WFH!

I do feel for those who are on 0 hour contracts, SSP etc.

The garden center was heaving this morning....
