    The eejits that couldn't panic buy dried pasta have swept up flour supplies so they can make their own. The world's gone mad I tell ye.

      Print off your last 3 months of posts on here. Should do the trick...

        For sure. No idea how it works though, numbers are down to 20k now which matches what I've seen yesterday, but the amount of people in the queue before me keeps going up, yet the time to wait is decreasing

          Please don't mention cookies. We've got enough for about 3 days, and when we run out, my balls are toast. She will tolerate a prosecco shortage (these are, after all, very testing times) but when we run out of triple choc cookies, some very serious tulip is going to happen. Mostly to me, I fear...

            Decided to launch Ocado. Got straight in.

            Still can't book a delivery slot.

            The site is only available if you have an existing order that you need to amend. Otherwise, feck off and shop elsewhere. (a slight paraphrasing...)

                Looks like you'll have to slum it with Fortnums then...

                  Also... no eggs?

                  Even hens are now a panic buy item

                    WTF - if they are frightened they won't lay and you have to stop foxes killing them for fun. Though they will probably eat them now due to lack of McDs and KFC.

                      Exactly this, wouldn't it be easier if they just plastered that all over their queuing page?
