I think you above anyone else are entitled to stockpile. Could you make your own pasta? Don’t ask me how though, but I believe it’s relatively easy.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6

Not really a particular type Joey. She prefers spirals but it's usually tubes that are cheapest. She trusts spirals aren't 'wet' just normal pasta she isn't GF anymore. Touch wood that's under some control good job with the pasta and bread diet or she'd cost me a fortune x“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”5

DD's eating habits aren't embarrassing at all. It is what it is. If her diet is limited to start with I can understand your anxiety of not being able to get hold of pasta for her. xx7

The supermarket situation just seems dire . I’m happy to have a look out and about near me for things that you can’t get hold of up your way. Do let me know if you think I can be if any help .
So glad that you received at least a 2 week supply of DD medication and grrrr to the ever increasing prices of other basic medical supplies that you have to outlay for 😔
Hope your weekend is going ok xxx5 -
I'm glad they're limiting panic buying online at least. I've had an email about it from Mr T too. We went into Mr S today as we happened to be passing it and they had notices up saying don't overbuy certain items due to some people being in genuine need of them. I'm not sure anyone will take any notice of them and they certainly had lots of empty shelves. They had plenty of spaghetti but very little pasta apart from expensive brands
