Boo we’ve just been ‘promoted’ to Tier 4 😩 Not that it’s going to make that much difference as we’re not going anywhere anyway. 

ditto!  It has been over 9 months since I have been anywhere except a few shops & I'm timing those visits to the times when they are quietest.  Round here that is lunch time when the schools are off & 3pm during term time.  I'd still like to know why people bother wearing a mask if they wear it under their noses.

We have just gone in to tier 4 same here makes no difference as we haven’t been anywhere and have no intention of can still go out for a walk plenty of walks round here all up or down a hill so plenty of exercise to be had and fairly quiet except for the usual fools who don’t believe in it and do what they want

We’re T4 too.....it won’t change much for me either. I usually only go to local shops which are classed as essential and to visit my relative in the bubble. I went to the bigger shopping mall for Christmas shopping but we’re there as soon as it opened so it wasn’t busy. Don’t plan another visit for a good while - which is just as well really 🙄

Sorry about tier 4 SA. We've just gone into tier 3 but it makes no difference to my lifestyle as I rarely go to pubs and having been avoiding coffe shops since March. Hopefully it iwll hold back the virus tide until we can all be vaccinated. Great news about the Oxford vaccine being approved though .

Well done on cleaning and clearing the kitchen cupboards .

Let me know what you think of the pizza pasta bake from the PON book. 

Nothing much changing being in Tier 4 .

Already in Tier 4 here!  Got to agree with everyone that the higher restrictions haven't made much difference to my lifestyle recently - WFH, essential shopping and walking - Christmas with my family bubble. 

You mentioned you haven't received your heated drier yet SA. I ordered one from Lakeland a month ago for DD and OH and it was only delivered to them yesterday. Not sure whether it's because there has been a run on them this winter or they have been stuck in a container somewhere. 🤔

The heated drier was meant to arrive today between 3.18 and 5.18, not here yet. I suppose it depends if they have snow where they’re coming from. I’ve never heard of the company who are delivering it.

The pasta bake is for DD, minus the pepperoni though.  If I was making it for me I’d put olives in to replace the pepperoni. DD is like Mr SA and wary of ‘foreign’ ingredients.

I might nip to the big Mr T first thing tomorrow morning as long as the pavements aren’t icy. I need a few bits and bobs.

Had to laugh at the 'foreign ingredients' - sort of remark my mum used to make!🤣

Yes I wouldn't want pepperoni in it either.
