Anyone else noticed that with all the hand washing, the fingerprint ID on your phone isn't working as well as it used to?

Good luck! If you see any red lentils, get some for meOriginally posted by vetran View Postwish me luck off to the Shops!
I just ventured into Iceland as there was no queue. They’re talking a good talk with all the notices about spacing and a crowd control guy on the door, but as expected, the customers really let the side down. I swear some of them think six inches and six feet are the same thing, having presumably been given a wholly inaccurate idea of measurements of length by kind-hearted women
And then more venturing, this time to the Co-op, where things were in much better order: a lady controlling the lock on the door, only about five or six people in the store at once (it’s not huge - that works out to about one customer per aisle), and on finally being admitted (I was fourth in the queue when I arrived) I was asked, in a manner that suggested it was more of an order than a request, to make proper use the bottle of hand sanitiser gel adjacent to the entrance before being allowed to touch so much as a basket
Neither place had any red lentils though

Oh, also extremely poor at staying a safe(ish) distance from other people: the kind of cyclist who rides a bike with knobbly tyres on the pavement, despite being a grown man and the roads being virtually empty of motor vehicles
Very much the kind of person who gives cyclists an undeserved bad name; none of them seem capable of steering any further than a foot or so from any given pedestrian even on extremely wide pavements

We just had a switch of goods with the mother in law where goods were exchanged via the sealed boot of the car

We are now in possession of a box of lovely steak pies

Asian supermarkets are your friend. I managed to raid the one in town before the lockdown diktat and found there was plenty, along with all sorts of other exotic pulses and beans that would need some prolonged googling to work out what to do with them.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostGood luck!
