Coronavirus

Got there 20 minutes before opening and there were 300+ people queuing outside so I ****ed it off

Meanwhile the Spar round the corner with all the same **** will have had three customers.

I've had a couple of texts from ppl telling me shelves are full and fully stocked for once. Looks like supply chains are kicking in.

Let the idiots queue up, they'll soon realise there's no need.

Yeah I ended up at a local shop where the delivery truck was parked outside. Much easier.

I only went this morning as 9-10 was apparently open for NHS staff only so thought it might not be too bad but obviously I was wrong.

They should let NHS staff beat the queues? Or put a sign up telling ppl to only queue before 10 if they're NHS staff otherwise they'll be told to leave. Shame them and they'll fck off.

I thought they ( Tesco ) said there would be a browsing hour for NHS staff today before the Tills opened ?

IF this happens again , go to the front of the Q with your ID mate .

I would've said the same if it was Alistair Campbell 20 years ago being reported on. And I dare say so would all the ppl posting about Cummings.

Government should be held up for scrutiny. If true then he's a **** by my reckoning whereas others may think he's being a ruthless pragmatist. They'd be wrong but it can argued at the very least without the political point scoring.

He can be both - a ruthlessly pragmatic ****.

They said the plan was for managers to id on the door but I wasn't waiting around to find out, and even then I wouldn't have envied them turning large amounts of people away.

Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Or is that old folk?

not surprised as i posted this earlier in the Burley Arms as i got back from walking my little ****er dog

having gone past a Tescos at 9:15 and the car park looked nearly full yet still traffic jams to enter i'm not sure the message is getting thru . Though have to point out if we are to avoid contact with people we do need supplies .

PS i know Tesco are allowing NHS staff in early but very much doubt they were all NHS staff by a long chalk .

Yeah that's the one mate, it was queued past the roundabout on the way in if you know what I mean? Another quarter of an hour and it would have been past the old hospital radio station.

 

[afcftw]

I had asked to be banned so not sure what happened there .

While I can still post I would just like to say .

Seeing advice everywhere not least here , I won’t be going to see my mum today .

Difficult decision but my head says the right one .

as I am classed as vulnerable I will be staying at home .

Mrs J will pop to my mum as we have a load of shopping for her .

my mum will stay in the front room while Mrs J takes the shopping in , then when Mrs J has left she will just carry on .

Stay safe everyone .

Well done mate I think you’re doing the right thing as difficult as it is. We’ve all got to do our bit. Stay safe - all my best to you and your mum

Yes I know what you mean . Thinking about it they could all be NHS staff ?

Quite possibly tbf, no real way of knowing unless I stuck around which I had no intention of.

The pictures of desserted streets in India are surreal.

Government suggested everyone stay home for a day and Hundreds and Thousands everywhere !!

 

[Joelinton's Right Foot]

I'm pleased supermarkets are giving NHS staff this hour, but if it's as busy as it sounds they should give them as long as it takes till they are all through the tills and the shop is empty again - then open it again for the public. If that means Joe public has to wait 2 or 3 hours then let him/her post it on facebook and thank the selfish hoarding ****s who made it necessary.

Anyway you can be sure ?

I mean they opened it for NHS staff ?

Just trying to help .
