They had loads of stock too. Starting to get a bit sick of all the false media/**** stirring about this virus, time to delete facebook I think.

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 09:10 PM

Hopefully things are starting to get a bit better then!

chinahorse 26-03-2020 09:13 PM

It depends on the shop as to what they are doing. I've found the best stocked to be aldi. Things are fairly civilised now for the most part.

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 09:17 PM

It's ridiculous that these measures had to be put in place in the first place
Just because some people are selfish twits!

chinahorse 26-03-2020 09:18 PM

Yep. But tbh I dont blame them. Government says people ha e to stay at home for 12 weeks. Impossible to get online delivery. So theure gunna go out once and get loads.

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 09:22 PM

Yeah that's true.
I don't know what I'm going to do about diet coke when I get home because I drink so much of it but can only carry a few bottles at a time!
And I'd really like to limit how much I go out

chinahorse 26-03-2020 09:23 PM

Good time to decrease the habit!

The Worst Witch 26-03-2020 09:23 PM

You can only buy three of the same item Beckie, so that kind of restricts it for you.

chinahorse 26-03-2020 09:24 PM

They are using their common sense a bit near me. People can buy more than 3 of some things. The dude in front of me had 5 energy drinks the other day and was allowed. Dont think anyone would stop you buying 5 Reed diffusers etc in aldi.

The Worst Witch 26-03-2020 09:27 PM

Probably not actually. I should try Aldi instead of Asdas, Asda was a nightmare yesterday. Full of rude people, but then you'd get that wherever you went.

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 09:27 PM

I have had to go cold turkey from diet coke while I've been in here so I could probably try and cut down!
I'll see how 'in demand' coke is.
If it's gone or nearly gone from the shelves I'll get one, if coke is plentiful then I will get more!
Hoping to get out to Morrison's tomorrow so will see what the coke situation is there

I do like a good reed diffuser

The Worst Witch 26-03-2020 09:32 PM

Coke is pretty much available in every shop here, but can you get irn Bru? No you cannot!

nonperson 26-03-2020 09:42 PM

I didn't think anyone liked the new Irn Bru though. =P

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 09:47 PM

I like the new irn bru!
But I'm not Scottish so I could be in the wrong here :p

The Worst Witch 26-03-2020 09:57 PM

No, nobody liked the new irn bru. I feel bad for saying that because I’m Scottish haha, everyone has to like Irn Bru here!

nonperson 26-03-2020 10:03 PM

So people are still drinking it because they think they have to? =P

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 10:04 PM

Haha!

The Worst Witch 26-03-2020 10:19 PM

Yes, yes they are. We’re a bit weird as a nation...

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 10:35 PM

Gotta love the Scots!

nonperson 26-03-2020 10:36 PM

The English have plenty of quirks too. =)

Cacoethes 26-03-2020 10:38 PM

We definitely do!

one_step_closer 27-03-2020 10:21 AM

Irn Bru Xtra is a good alternative.

Morning everyone. I just want out of the house! Still have to go and collect my prescription but the chemist isn't open yet.

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 11:20 AM

Morning everyone

nonperson 27-03-2020 11:28 AM

Morning guys. How's everyone today?

I think it's the last day of sunshine today so enjoy it for as long as possible if you can or if you can't get outside then get those windows open!

one_step_closer 27-03-2020 11:37 AM

Morning. No sunshine here. Enjoy it if you have it.

nonperson 27-03-2020 11:40 AM

Maybe it's leaving here and going up to you for the weekend?

one_step_closer 27-03-2020 11:41 AM

I wouldn't want to steal your sunshine.

What are your plans for today NP?

nonperson 27-03-2020 11:44 AM

There's enough of it to share. =)

Dunno really. Number 1 priority is to shower. And then maybe do some pruning in the garden while the weather is nice. Am toying with finally buying a new laptop as well...

My friend is dropping off some fresh food too which is a big relief.

Have you been out to the chemist yet?

tamobhuuta 27-03-2020 11:47 AM

Morning all. I'm watching Curvy Brides Boutique :)

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 12:11 PM

I’ve had my shower, just need to get dressed. I missed Joe Wicks p.e. session this morning so I’ll be doing that after my breakfast!

chinahorse 27-03-2020 12:17 PM

Morning guys.

nonperson 27-03-2020 12:45 PM

What's Curvy Brides Boutique?

What sort of stuff does Joe Wicks get you doing?

Morning Lillie. =)

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 01:34 PM

Today he was doing running on the spot and simple warm up exercises, like jumping jacks. It’s aimed at kids while they’re off school

nonperson 27-03-2020 01:36 PM

Ah I see, that's really good he's doing that for kids. They have plenty of energy to burn!

one_step_closer 27-03-2020 01:40 PM

I hope you can achieve your goals NP.

I was at the chemist this morning.

The gym group worker wants the gym group to do the Joe Wicks exercises when we'd usually be at the group. I might be too lazy.

Hi Lillie, how are you?

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 01:43 PM

Hey guys
I slept until lunch (apart from briefly getting up to get meds) and I'm still really tired!
Not even dressed yet. Should probably do that at some point

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 02:24 PM

I'm trying to keep a normal routine so my mental health doesn't go down the toilet as much as possible.
I find it really hard working from home, I prefer the library

chinahorse 27-03-2020 02:27 PM

I'm bored at work. We are phone triaging. And mainly watching Tangled on Disney plus and eating takeaway.

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 02:38 PM

I feel for you guys
Must be tough

What takeaway do you have Lillie?

chinahorse 27-03-2020 02:49 PM

It was piri piei chicken stuff. I had chips and onion rings with garlic dip.

nonperson 27-03-2020 02:57 PM

Ooo onion rings. Nom.

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 03:12 PM

Nice!
You've made me want to watch tangled so I've just put it on

nonperson 27-03-2020 03:21 PM

I've never seen Tangled. =/

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 03:23 PM

You should watch it!

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 03:27 PM

You should watch it np, its one of my favourite ‘new’ disney movies.

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 03:39 PM

It is very good!

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 03:43 PM

The only Disney movie I don't like tbf is Frozen. Much to the amusement of my littlest friends, they always want to watch it or have 'let it go' as tidy up time music

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 03:48 PM

I like frozen! And frozen 2.

I think rapunzel would have a severe vitamin D deficiency

The Worst Witch 27-03-2020 03:52 PM

I haven't seen frozen 2. Something my best friend said she'd be rectifying when I next babysit L, her 2 year old.

The last time I babysat, we went round the shops and he kept saying "ALISON! SIT DOWN!" and then wanting me to read his book. In the middle of shops. I looked crazy haha

Cacoethes 27-03-2020 03:55 PM

Haha!!
