Waitorse was c. 3m, all the way round the car park. I wondered if OB was in there somewhere but I couldn't hang around the Daily Torygraph shelf too long. Btw, that paper was selling the most. Waitrose even had hand sanitiser.
This morning I went to the local convenience store. They are always well stocked. They had sanitizer gel, 100ml at £5.99 each. I knoew that they were paying at least £5 from their source - but they were down to their last two because one or two people accused them of profiteering and they won't be stocking any more. What a shame.

No, not at Waitrose. I don't regard that shop as providing value for money. I hover between Asda, Sainsbury's and on occasion, M&S.
So far, I have avoided the queuing. If you shop before 9am you can generally avoid them. I shall be glad when we are back to normal, though!

Keep an eye on the new admissions. That's where the first indications will be that the peak is reached. I think we may be there now. The figures for the number of deaths will take about three weeks to follow suit.
