The 'I need a distraction' thread.

I'm finding my house is cleaner too, and I'm not doing as much washing either so my electricity bill is happy with me hehe.

I did get lots of work to do over the easter holidays, boo.

[nonperson]

My hands are never clean and soft though, Beckie! It is a good thing, just hard to get used to. =P

Boo indeed to lots of Easter work, Alison. =/

[chinahorse]

I'm doing less laundry too Alison not quite caught up yet though. Usually wear 3 outfits a day which amounts to a lot of washing. (Work uniform, travel to work clothes and pjs)

Least the work will keep you busy?

Aldi was horrific. I have enough food now to last about 3 to 3.5 weeks and after that I will starve or eat take away until the world is normal again.

[The Worst Witch]

It should do. Have put it all in a folder for now, will look at it properly later.

Aldi here too was manic this morning. I’m getting really fed up of having to go shopping early in the morning or everything is out of stock

[not_so_insig]

My mum got me a load of toilet roll and cat food. So if I cant get a Tesco shopping order I will be ok as my freezer is full.

[chinahorse]

The only thing aldi didnt have here was pasta. There was loo roll but no choice. They seem to have resigned themselves to the fact they won't get more stock and are using the shelves for cider.

I'm going to have to brave a food shop soon, I've maybe got a week's worth of food left. I won't mind if there's no pasta but plenty of cider. =)

[The Worst Witch]

I’ve been going every day because we live a stones throw away from all the big supermarkets and we don’t have a car. I don’t know if I should be going out everyday though?

[nonperson]

You're allowed out for exercise every day, but food shopping should be done as infrequently as possible.

[The Worst Witch]

So would getting a taxi to deliver it be ok? Or should I ask for help?

[nonperson]

Are taxis still running? You'd be within two metres of the driver. I don't know what the answer is... You should be able to carry enough back in one go to last a few days at least?

[The Worst Witch]

Yeah, taxis here are doing food shops for vulnerable people who can’t get food shops because of no delivery slots amd all you pay for is the shopping. Alternatively could carry stuff! Thanks np

Morning Tamo and everyone.

[chinahorse]

Hey guys. Work is so boring. How are you all?

[tamobhuuta]

I'm ok, watching TV now but will have a quick pray with my sister soon. Then of course I've got to watch doctors!

[one_step_closer]

Afternoon. I hope you're all getting on ok.

[tamobhuuta]

You up to anything osc?

[chinahorse]

Are they still filming drs?

I had a halloumi wrap and piri piri fries for lunch. Tasty!

[not_so_insig]

No they're not filming Doctors, Eastenders, Holby City or Casualty BBC wise. ITV have stopped filming Emmerdale and Corrie.
