My Mrs is NHS

She isn't coal face so doesn't use it (she just sends me as a furlough wanker)

There's plenty NHS who don't need the fast track and plenty others who do

I feel for the supermarkets, I really do

 

She may not be coal face but she is a small cog in a very big machine and without her things wouldn’t get done which may have an impact on clinical work.

I’m not front line but I’m averaging 60 hour weeks, I’m on call today, on site tomorrow and Sunday and on call Monday. Good job I can’t go anywhere.

I would imagine it could be quite embarrassing.

Anyway, off to get my click and collect shortly. Fucking piss easy.

The hassle comes after: separating it into lots for 6 other households and delivering it.

I refused to go out again today as I wanted to chill out so the missus popped to lidl and said there was a couple of skanky women about to have a straightener in the queue there. Tempers are boiling over. 
 

I can’t wait for our royal rumble when the fixtures are announced as starting again 😁

Lots of changes in my click and collect and some with no alternatives. One of her beers was replaced, but bishops finger was deemed as having no suitable alternative! Figure that one out.

Plain flour unavailable again, and self raising just not sent, despite not being classed as unavailable.

Poor buggers doing the picking must be rushed off their feet! :)

Those classed as highly vulnerable and having to shield for the 12 weeks getting special delivery slots at the supermarkets I’ve just found out. That’s great work by the supermarkets ensuring they are call catered for 

that being seen down there for folk?

Tesco near us is fine. Never more than a 10 min queue. Use a hand held scanner. In and out dead quick

Morrisons and Aldi though. 1 hour queues with scutters having straighteners in the queue 

Did you win your punch up mate ?

I wasn't keen either tbh, front line more worthy of myself, but i've done 21 days straight, and 35 hours extra this week, so wasn't keen queuing to get some food :D

If you can’t take full advantage now you never will. 
All those times you considered nabbing that £20 out of Doris’s purse and you didn’t, well now is your time to shine 😁 Get to the front with smug grin on your boat.

It’s a shame you’re a scouser, cos you’re a bloody hero otherwise.
