• So food availability in the capital is my primary concern at this stage

    I wouldn't stress too much then. Apparently buying in the last week has been akin to Christmas shopping. It's no surprise, then, that things are gone. But (most) people will reach their stockpiling capacity soon, and it was reported that that production of most stuff is up by 50% to cope.

  • That is encouraging and kind of what I've been repeating to myself like a mantra all week, if they're looking stocked again I'll be reassured.

    And virus apart it seems ironic to say cycling accidents may put an extra burden on the NHS in case of an accident, when its so deserted at the moment its probably the safest city cycling ever at the moment. Here's Oxford St today, Saturday just before 1pm, pretty amazing really, even quieter than the Christmas day rides, so much more pleasant and safer than normal.

    Piccaddilly Circus

    Also in view of the fatality and injury statistics I would have said they should be banning driving before cycling if they want to reduce an extra NHS burden, but funny not heard any mention of that yet.
