In fairness lots of British people think their diet is excellent and they're fit, but don't realise that their boozing and bad diet is actually the cause of most of the ills as they age.
One look around the supermarket last week confirmed that the UK is likely to be much worse hit than Italy. I hope it is not so, but deep down I think we know it's true.

A number of people I know have stopped drinking if they are 45 or older. Alcohol really impacts the ability of the immune system to respond and in this pandemic it's probably advisable to concentrate on getting as fit as possible rather than boozing.
The older you are the more you should try keep fit for the next few months. I'm just being direct and honest.

I also purchased another bottle of gin.
The checkout assistant looked very amused.

Being as my lemons were for my wife, who has a cough, to make Hot Toddy's it was for an OAP who was self isolating. Apparently if they'd had bags of lemons I would have been allowed 3 bags.

Originally posted by Whorty View PostTBF to them, what choice do they have? can't get a home delivery for love nor money in our area. Only way to get any food is to go to the local supermarket. Wife and I told to self isolate, yet we have to eat so have to go to Waitrose once a week.
It's all well and good BoJo and his pals saying those in self isolation will be able to get food delivered, but the reality is far from that simple.
I've never heard of anyone actually receiving this service though, I think it's a bunch of people who want to brag about it to others and then get special priority down at the shops. "I'm shopping for the vulnerable, front of the line for me!"
