There is at least a few of us on here with underlying health conditions.

I wish everyone the best of luck in getting through the weeks and months ahead.

You're absolutely right, Chrys, and I second those best wishes to all.

I've cancelled a couple of hospital appointments for the next two months.

If anyone uses the home delivery service you need to book your delivery date asap, as it seems everyone as turned in to maniacs on there.

The Asda delivery driver said one person ordered 20 pallets of food the other day, that is equal to the amount of food they deliver to care homes.

Ah, like so many things, too good to be true.

My basket for Monday is also well stocked with non-perishable tinned and bottled nourishment, aka beer and wine, fingers crossed that gets through ok.

Don't hold your breath, none of the shops do reservations of products so when they turn up the loo paper will probably not be there.

We only use home delivery and its ALWAYS a mess.  You can order something and it be out of stock on the day so they do not deliver it, but you CAN'T order something that is out of stock, even though it might come IN stock before your delivery.  Utterly dumb.

The SM we order from, if you've agreed, will deliver substitutes for the same cost, even if larger or dearer.

Substitutes are recommended by computer, often completely bizarre and unrelated to what you ordered.

We no longer ask for substitutes as too many things react with my mums medication so she has to be extremely specific.

For example all the sugar free drinks have a chemical in them that is iffy. (likely for everyone as its not been well tested, but worse with her medication)  Its pretty much original Pepsi or nothing, soft drinks wise, which can be problematic with takeaways when they are out of stock so try to sub it for something sugar free.
