    I wonder if Wath Asda are still enforcing their 1 hour parking limit. I got a ticket from their ANPR camera once, but luckily a colleague agreed to cancel it.

    Missus been down to Morrison's at Cortonwood for elderly neighbours. Said it was a bit hit and miss on basics. Had eggs and some toilet roll (£3 4 pack bamboo, brand not heard of), no flour and limited meat. Still no hand wash, soap, bleach or anti bac wipes. Unless supplies are replenished for basic cleaning it'll spark other chuffing illnesses.

    I'm mainly shopping in local convenience stores. The smaller shops seem to be better managed, usually one-in-one-out, with only a handful in the shop at any one time. I got all my essentials today: bacon, eggs, bread, milk, bananas, baked beans, spaghetti, and chocolate. They had loo rolls too, but I didn't have enough hands and I wasn't leaving the chocolate behind.

    EDIT.
    Is this what it's come to? Grown men comparing their shopping trips...o_O:D

    As of today all supermarkets have changed their policies to try and make as many people as possible shop alone.....

    https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/whats-on/new-supermarket-rules-hours-sainsburys-18033951

    Also here nobody is allowed to a funeral so it's even tighter than what it was previously only allowing a handful....

    I would say avoid supermarkets if possible but when you see the news stories of people queuing before they open, it's probably better to go later in the day.
