• Yeah, the big supermarkets are definitely best avoided if you can. I went for the first time in weeks on Friday. It was horrible. Sticking to small local shops from now on...

  • my local Coop looked like they were upping their game from the manager standing doing one-in-one-out whilst coughing everywhere, to briefly having a couple of staff wearing masks/gloves, but they seemingly dgaf anymore and it's resumed it's free-for-all dynamic so it doesn't seem to make much odds other than being a bit quieter if you choose your moment.

    The structured queueing outside then going into the shop and abandoning all caution is just weird to me-if the Swedish model is trusting their citizens to do the right thing then the UK definitely can't do it without tasering a huge percentage of people repeatedly in the bollocks.

    I always have my face covered and today some daft bint did that 'half-smile-oops-I'll-just-squeeze-by' thing then started coughing and I had to refrain myself from chucking her in the fucking freezer cabinet and jamming the door shut. Have some hypothermia with yer Covid, cow...

  • Waitrose mate. My local one is highly organised. Everything is wiped. Hardly Singapore but less of a death trap than my local Tesco.

    I think Waitrose clientele mostly got C19 early (from their kids going on school ski trips). Now their guilt, as vectors for a pandemic, manifests in respect for personal space, some masks and general good manners.

    There are also a some amazing deals on Italian wines right now.
