Panic buying

[Salty seadog]

Yorkshire Tea? A fools, weak substitute for PG.

Which is a weak substitute for a good Assam.

What a coincidence. I have a lifetime supply of cable end nipples, instead of the 10 I ordered

Anyone else ? Perhaps we can all open a store between us

You can add electric connectors (crimp receptacles) so the store's shelves. I needed 2 for my front dynamo light years ago, and they sent me hundreds of the things.

You can use them to release supermarket trolleys as well.

Oh great that means I can stock pile one for the big panic buy shop.
Can be all but done well before most have even started fighting over them.

How many jars of Horlicks should I grab, do you think?

That depends on how much milk you got stashed or how many cows you think you can get in your garden

BTW, shopping trollies are made in the EU, so chances are we will have a shortage of them too

However, environmentally this is a good thing, as people will reclaim the discarded ones from rivers, canals and railway sidings

I panic bought some Euros a couple of weeks ago for next week's holiday.now the euro has dropped against the pound

I have a fair few 'bike lights'. At least the 2 new Planet X front lights came in useful last week during a power cut - used the 'cob' LED to light up my daughter's room !

Condoms. Useful for carrying water, keeping dirt out the barrel,of your rifle, and if it's not too grubby after all that you can slip on on your wee feller.

Not that I anticipate any significant problems, the preppers amongst us are feeling pretty smug right now.

Do you anticipate needing that rifle hunting in Lidl? Their prices are pretty low.

As in my previous post we now have 2 cows to provide milk for the 500 packets of butterscotch angel delight. Didn't know you could legally buy Horlicks in the UK still

I could probably fit ten cows in my garden, but it'd be standing room only..

Morrisons use a UK trolley manufaturer.

I've stocked up on Marmite, and I'm hoping to get a lifetimes supply of Brooks saddle.

How wonderful you either love em or hate em,and i love both.

Mrs Z has just bought two 25 kg bags of bird seed. I'm unsure whether this was a panic purchase, as she remains outwardly calm. I suppose, should the need arise, and if warm water remains available, we'll be able to survive on some sort of soup.

The bird seed is to lure the birds to within catching distance, then it's your go...
