Maybe I can find a walking stick somewhere, to better look the part.Yep, but only type 11 at least I'm on Crutches though.

Cracking a solo.
Kinda, but from a different angle. My wife can't walk very far so is in a wheelchair when we go shopping, this could in theory allow us to rock up for the vulnerable hour, but to be honest, if we did we'd just be taking advantage of what could be someone else's slot, so we're not going to. It's so difficult to police when hidden conditions are involved.
The advantage for me would be if the supermarket was quieter, so that I reduce potential sources of contagion. Seeing as it looks like if anything it was busier, it appears to be counterproductive.

We're the same, just continuing with the usual deliveries. There's a few shortages but nothing major.
With a potential lockdown in Old London Town, people are starting to talk about exceptions for essential workers. Who is an essential worker? Not just doctors, nurses hospital staff, police, ambulance and fire services. Also drivers, shop assistants, warehouse staff, bin men. If you can describe your job in words of less than three syllables, and not use the words Resource, Network, Communication, Chief, then you probably have an essential job.
My wife had symptoms over the weekend.
So taking the advice on NHS site we shut ourselves in.
My symptoms followed a day after.
Nothing drastic. Sore throat , temperature fluctuations , slight headache.
Normally if I felt like this I would take paracetamol and get out on my bike for a few hours along the canal and come back feeling better. Staying in just now , but might have a solo trip in a few days.
4 days done. 10 left.

My wife knows a lot of the staff t our local supermarket,and their early offer,was also plagued with problems,healthy fit wanting to get in with the aged and disabled.We both have diabetes pre and stage 1,i have two hearing aids and only one eye.We were wondering if we could use the early bird offer.

It's meaningless. The supermarkets have thought about what the absolute minimum is that they can do, and done just slightly less than that. It's bullshit lip service.
Reminds me of the autism hour...
Any better suggestions?

We were told to where possible work from home from Tuesday, (but I was anyway because of child 2). I understand from someone who had to attend work today to get around an IT problem, that we are now banned from attending work from tomorrow.

Do nothing, or do something. Don't do nothing and say that you're doing something.

I think this is getting beyond the point of what supermarkets can handle on their own. Even setting limits on purchases, there's nothing stopping someone from going back in for more.
Some kind of token that limits how much each household can get per week might help, can't think what I would call it, though,
