Like okay, I bought a few extra teabags and long life milk its not the end of the world as we know it, you only have to look at how people react at Christmas and in the snow to know it can get very messy very quickly

Anti bac being a case in point, you can't buy it for love nor money, I don't buy it but I have friends at a special needs school and they use tons of it and its now out of stock everywhere bought by people who wouldn't normally use it

The biggest worry about this virus is that people are buying long life milk. I'll take my chances with lung death rather than resort to such desperate measures!

:joker: its actually not too bad!

and yesterday on a radio show a pharmacist said that boxes of face masks that used to be 10.00 are now 50.00 :skull:

Gav is going food shopping today, I told him he better start getting a few panic buys now Corona is in Cork :skull:

I'm going food shopping as well later. Wish me luck :eyes:

take hand gel for the trolley handle

:skull: will do, he needs to swipe some from work as well

Good luck with that, hand gel has vanished from stores around here. :worry:

Gav works in a Pharmaceutical company :smug:

And he's hoarding the supplies? :oh:

Not yet :hehe:

I'm going to make some for work today, we get 600+ drivers coming through the gatehouse from all over, think we need to start thinking a bit more seriously about the risks.

Pretty sure you'll be fine , aslong as you keep hand sanitiser and wash hands .

The TL is on her way home from work....ILL

The teacher today asked smallest boy LT's class to come up with a sentence with the word "contagious" in it.

Smallest boy LTs hand shot up

"my dad says he avoids the road to school with the lollipop man on it as it takes the contagious to do his bloody job"

You'll have to stock up on face(ass) cloths instead

:laugh2:

He best have bought crackers in my honour

and BROWN rice or you are getting a lecture on nutrition from TS

:joker:

I told him to buy crackers and brown rice, I also mentioned flour but he said he's buying bread mix instead

I bought 2 more wine boxes at lunch.

:worry:

I got in with 2 family packs last week, I will start rationing if I need to :oh:

On the news today some minister was banging on about buying normally as the supply chain would be fine and that the government were liaising with supermarkets on this and how to get food to anyone who has to self isolate which was immediately denied by a supermarket chief :skull:

at or for?

Ordered 60 toilet paper rolls on Amazon.
That's the extend of my stockpiling so far.

Oop bread flour is not a bad idea.

Cant be arsed with face masks btw
only those with a HEPA filter are any good btw

:joker:

Supermarkets have cast doubts on an assurance from the health secretary that food supplies would not be disrupted by the coronavirus outbreak.

On Thursday, Matt Hancock said: "We are working with the supermarkets to make sure that, if people are self-isolating, then we will be able to get the food and supplies that they need."

But supermarket sources said they had not discussed getting food to homes.

One executive said he was "baffled" by the suggestions.

An executive told BBC business editor Simon Jack: "Matt Hancock has totally made up what he said about working with supermarkets. We haven't heard anything from government directly."

He added that sales of cupboard basics such as pasta and tinned goods have "gone through the roof".
