I can tell it it is ******* disgusting, even more so when you put the milk in...

At Tier 4 all forum postings will be banned ...

But it will still be ok to have “business lunch” with up to 60 people

So Irish supermarkets have kettles, newborn clothing and sanpro removed from sale?

They had non-essential items removed in the first lockdown, but thqat didn't include baby clothes and sanitary protection - not sure about kettle. Not sure what they're doing now. It looks as if some aren't but should, and that's causing some justifiable complaints from small retailers.

I was reading the new Irish legislation today - we have to stay at home without a reasonable excuse (which includes exercising within 5km and essential shopping).
