GERS the workmen are to be applauded what a sterling job they have done.
The Downing Street pres bulletin is on early (no Boris today) and the poor guy is wasting his breath - once again warning people against stockpiling. It just falls on stony ground. I get my shopping info second hand sadly but apparently we now have staff on the doors looking at ID etc. Some nasty incidents witnessed too - someone caught helping themselves to the contents of the Salvation Army charity food collecting trolley in Sainsbobs and in the big Asda a couple of towns along someone helping themselves from other folks trolleys and putting in their own when the trolley pusher was occupied looking elsewhere!!
Both DD and DS were out early looking for essentials. Just a tiny list from me if either spotted them!! DS found Sparkle some Catsan in Pets at Home and got 2 tubs of my favourite Greek yogurt in Aldi, along with a box of their golden yolk eggs that I like. He wanted milk but only allowed to buy one 4litre bottle. With 5 of them he says that will last about a day so he'll be back out tomorrow looking for more! . Success for DD too she texted she had finally managed to get the Quorn mince she has been trying all week to find! So everybody happy today!
I have still to go out to sort and analyse stock in the freezers in the garage but it's so blooming cold out there!

Made a cake with love for my mother for Mothering Sunday - well DH did it i supervised. Also smart buns for my 3 who are currently working from home. Good to achieve something hope you all had a good day xI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.4
