Might work in remote locations, but easier and quicker to go to the local supermarket for me.

Indeed, most would. I'd say though some people would be happy to support their local - I'd hate for mine to go under only for crappy chains to survive.

Glad they're on top of it this time around.

Why are people such morons?

When media and certain politicians push it as almost an apocalypse scenario, then people react accordingly. People are panicing because people have been encouraged to panic for the most part.

When we go shopping, do we buy a little bit more than normal? Sure. Don't clear the store though.

At least when I go to the pub with my mate he gets a round in, no fecking chance of that if I take the Mrs instead.

Seriously though, if only members of the same household can go to the pub, are the pubs going to bother to stay open anyway?

I've never really fancied going to a pub with someone I live with. If I go out, it's for a meal, and arranging a meal has become a major ball ache of late, so I haven't bothered even with that. If me and someone I live with are gonna get drunk, we'll do it in the house where it's cheaper, and my dance moves are better appreciated.

I went to Asda earlier, and the only toilet rolls left were the 4 pack ones. I usually buy the 24 pack and it sees me through for a long time. Can't understand the mad rush to get toilet rolls, and all I can think is people see the shelves getting emptier and act that way.

I remember reading a really cool story about someone nipping out to get some mozzarella last March, and coming home with loads of pasta, rice, and toilet rolls. The person who recanted this story has lots of material. I liked his recollection of a gun hold-up in Liege, followed quickly by another one.

And you can choose the tunes. I love turning my house into a pub. Chuck the kids pool table up, hang my dartboard on the wall, game of killer, chuck on a bit of pub rock, Dr Feelgood, The Faces that sort of thing, bish - fackin - bosh, the Covid Arms is open for business gents.

I'm not married. Thank God. Bet there is a pub loving married man somewhere wanting to swap positions with me.

You reminded me. we used to go to the Cornwall before games, me my dad and my uncle. My uncle would drink up his last pint, chuck some money in the jukebox, pick "Wild Thing" to play 3 times, and we would then leave.

ahh that old chestnut. A boozer I used to go in down in Hampshire while lodging with work had a jukebox that was 7 songs for £1.

Every time me and my mate left to go to another pub we used to put a quids worth of Freebird or Bohemian Rhapsody or on.

Whoever you're on about sounds interesting.
