you can tell its panic time
Apart from making chicken or beef and vegetable stews that I eat with a big bowl and bread roll and lump of cheese in a soup kind of style my life is too busy to be messing about buying veg , preparing it and boiling it
I buy frozen mixed veg , carrots , peas , sprouts or tinned stuff. Bung it in the oven , microwave , shove it on your plate . Sorted .
But no chance these days . We have a waitrose where I live but I cant stand places like that , tescos at a push but prefer the Co op up the road or the local independent supermarket chain filco.
I shop there often and did so before the virus . Its a bit more pricey but its got most things I need . The staff are lovely . I often talk metal to one of the check out girls who likes sabbath and covered in ink .
I do my run and always pick up the frozen mixed veg , frozen carrots , sprouts , frozen peas . And then head round the next aisle for tins of peas and carrots etc .
But I had no chance today . People who only ever the place when its snowing or the world is ending were pushing round trolleys of frozen veg , tinned food and bog roll till their trolley was overflowing .They could barely see in front of them . At high speed .
Don't get in the way of these mad people . It would be like being hit by the cardiff to London Paddington service .
The end of the world is nigh
Mrs come home from work crying earlier. Some ****er had tipped a pot of Quink over here cause there was no sprouts or fountain pens left. Some other ****er moaning about non locals shopping in a local shop. Pushed her over the edge. Put some of her Sabbath collection on for her. Feels much better now. Some charmers out there.
Ive still got a box of pasta sheets left from the last time, but we wont mention that
Are there really people panic buying? It's not like last time, where production stopped in certain areas. The only difference to me for the last 40 minutes and counting, is that i can't leave the county of Cardiff without reasonable excuse-that's not difficult at all, things considered.
Where do these morons get the £1 coin for the trolley from ???
Or do trolleys take cards these days ?
What if you're just over half way up Leckwith Hill say, .by that house on the left that overlooks the City ground and are suddenly bursting for a shit? It can easily happen.
Can you flick your tab out the window, do it up tight, turn the radio up to distract yourself, and drive on to the Tuck In cafe in Dinas Powys ? Or do you now have to do a U turn in that parking area on the left, just over the brow of the hill but before the old council houses on the right, and coast back down to the Black and White cafe in Grange?
Or isn't the legislation that specific. I can't imagine a details guy like Drakeford overlooking this eventuality.
It's changed hands a few times. Haven't been in there for a while. If I did though I'd be after 2 bacon, 2 sausage, 3 egg, beans, 2 toast and mushrooms. Never run out of eggs on a breakfast. It's a schoolboy error, oft committed by wide boys who lack advanced thinking skills.
