Shops have been shut for 5 hours, how are you coping ?

Last panic buying ended at 5pm here at the local Asda ( other supermarkets are available )

The next 18 hours without a shop are going to be hard but if we all pull together i think we can make it.

Thoughts and prayers to you all in these difficult times.

WE WILL REBUILD.

36 hours here in Scotland. I’m expecting aid drops from UNICEF to prevent a humanitarian disaster.

I've got my Jack Daniels and a microwave lasagne in the fridge so I'll be OK for a day or two

To be fair I wanted to buy some cans from Sainsbury's but it was shut so I resorted to going to an actual public house. Fortunately it's quite quiet.

Already built my survival bunker and well stocked with rations.

The internet will protect me.

You may jest, but when no-deal Brexit comes to town, we'll all be hunting rats with sticks

Or so they say. Shopping in Asda will be a pleasant dream (now there's a thought that's difficult to believe).

Why is that are the EU going to ban us from trading and if so why?

Hmm, I might be able to stretch that out for 2 days.

Yes, yes, my post was 100% serious. Well spotted.

Genuinely forgot to buy bread for soup. New year's is a disaster!
Already got the father on the bread maker and looked out the bread flour and yeast extract in this house!

But it kind of was a bit. I mean that's the message isn't it, join or die.

Sure Tesco in Musselburgh is open tomorrow. Times have poorly changed.

Petrol stations are open 24 hours. Just went to my local M&S/BP petrol station to buy some food and drink. Same as I did on Christmas Day.
