My parents are now in total Lock down in southsea, their in their 70s but fit and healthy, they walked the camino last year from their front door carry all their kit.
I visited this morning to deliver some bread and veg. I sate on the patio and had a chat with them both though the double glazing. Cycling home later I passed the large tescos extra at port Solent. it was just before 9:00 and cars where queuing out the car park and the entrance to the shop looked like the mall scene from the dawn of the dead, with an hour until it opened, bet that was carnage. Fareham tescos 5 miles down the road looked like a normal Sunday.
Feel very luck to live in a small village with two relatively well stocked shops. I stop at the one stop to get a couple of bits, no bread on the shelves unfortunately. the lady at the till said in a hushed tone, do you need any bread? I said yes and she produced a loaf from behind the counter, said she was look out the the locals.
