Also, just saw more stores closing including primark. This virus feels like a massive win for amazon.
I was thinking Argos might do well out of it.

Say my electric kettle went belly-up. Either order a new one online or nip down and order it on one of the terminals in-store. Then wait for one of the gnomes at the back of the store to load it onto the conveyor belt, one of the guys to put it onto the counter, and stand back while you collect it. And all done at arms length.

I had to take Bee back to the vets today and they are asking customers to call when they arrive and then they come out when the vet us free. A very sensible procedure.

When I arrived there was one car in the car park so I parked at the opposite end near the grass part to see if Bee needed the loo.

I then returned to my car and awaited to be summoned only for another customer to enter the car park through the exit and reverse park into the space next to me so that her door was right next to my door.

She could have parked in the middle about 6 or 7 cars away from me or the other parked car but she then made it even worse by getting out of her car and standing by her door.

When the vet came out for our appointment I gestured to the lady to move away a bit but she struggled to comprehend why I was asking her.

When I explained about the virus and social distancing she replied "it's ok I haven't got it" so I replied "maybe not but I have" she moved away rather sharpish.

Some people just don't get it do they?

Cant stand Boris, but, well done that man!

:clap:
Really?

I was watching in feeling that for about 3 seconds, then I got angry, it’s vague, open to interpretation, has to many variables, and too many questions.

He would have had several over qualified Eaton boys give that script the twice over, it was vague and ambiguous for a reason.

Politics- and complete lack of an actual backbone.

As Martin Lewis said lunchtime, the vagueness is there because it's not all nailed-down and it gives them plenty of wriggle-room.

Anyway, the direction of travel is clear even if the edges could do with do with a bit more definition.

ETA And it's spelt (spelled?) Eton, as in the rifles.
