Stockpile?
Ran morning and night for the last couple of days as due to various race cancellations my mate and I have a chance to run the west highland way next month. Get the feeling even that may be cancelled
Pub whilst I can later0 -
Morning, much colder this morning, Sungod the shoppers in Lincoln seem to manage to empty every shelf in the shops and forget about fruit and veg
I need to nip to the garden centre today to get some grass seed I hope the panic buyers have not emptied the shelves in there as well
Have a good day0 -
it was metaphorical pineapple
plenty here, though international supply chains may eventually empty
being good and avoiding outside mingling is not exciting, yawn

Off to the Eye Hospital clinic this morning, latest in the never ending series, clinics still running. Given the majority of the attendees are the aged, the infirm, the wheezies et al, maybe I will utter a small cough every now and then, just for the lols... 😉0

What's a mask good for? Apart from making me look a d1ck?0

You're in an eye hospital, no one will see you looking a d1ck.

WFH. Shorter and less intense pedal. More WFH. Slurp coffee (I have plenty of my favoured Ethiopian beans). More WFH. Cook dinner. Plot how home schooling will work next week while trying to WFH. Hoping no lockdown so that builders won't leave the garden half finished, though I suspect they might carry on regardless.0

More WFH and still busy - doesn't help our year end is approaching.
Found a good little local butchers shop that can keep us supplied with meat while the supermarket lottery continues. I count that as a win."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
That's a very good idea, I'll wander to my local butchers over the weekend see what theyve got, I just need to find a decent supply of coffeeStevo_666 said:More WFH and still busy - doesn't help our year end is approaching.

Someone sent round a link to some STEM stuff for kids to do (activities, teaching material) if they're that way inclined.hopkinb said:. Plot how home schooling will work next week while trying to WFH.
I think it requires interaction with them, so might not be much help if you're trying to WFH.

I have never seen Oxford city centre so quiet, any time of day or night. Weird.0

I might get flamed for saying this, but coffee is something we can probably do without at a push...Stevo_666 said:More WFH and still busy - doesn't help our year end is approaching.

Meh day. Cloudy with showers on and off. Severe case of CBA much of the day, finally managed some chainsaw fun for a couple hours this afternoon, followed by some shovelling of.... sand.
I only drink 2 coffees a day at most, but they are on my essentials list. The espresso machine is in for repairs at the moment, so am reliant on the pod thing for now. Just hope I get the machine back in the promised 10 days or there will be trouble!Open One+ BMC TE29 Seven 622SL On One Scandal Cervelo RS0 -

Still working from work. M&S were doing an hour for NHS staff, so I went there on the way in. Busy but sane, though they did have staff guarding the eggs. In fact there were dozens of staff on the shop floor.0

Back in the office from a completely necessary meeting in Glasgow, hotel was almost empty which wasn't a bad thing as I got a decent swim in the pool.
Probably the last training swim though as our local pool is now closed as I suspect are most others.
I heard a good idea the other day, airport rules apply should we go into lock down!
Other than carrying on working from work, nothing much to report.

Ok, I bite. "airport rules"? Is that what happens in airport stays in airport, or is it hit the lager at 0645?homers_double said:...airport rules apply should we go into lock down!

I successfully bought grass seed at my local DIY place LD. Plus other seeds. I doubt the grass seeds will make good flour.
Get a stovetop WS.
No coffee would be like hell.
Trying to find local delivery of milk. This will be fun.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
I've got stacks of coffee beans, all roasted early March, so at their peak. You're welcome any time. You'll have to pass through a stringent disinfection process, and of course on the way you will have suffered a million close passes, but I do make a decent cup.awavey said:

I got passed on my ride today while I was blowing out of my ears. I buried myself trying to keep up with the guy, but he just kept pulling away, checking his watch, scratching his arse, eating a gel. I gave up and sulked. I got home and checked strava. He's on a semi pro team, with a sub 14 minute Richmond park lap i.e. 47 kph average over a rolling course. Lovely smooth pedal stroke.
Anyway, I then also remembered I'm 46 and fat.
All the pubs closed. What will TLW do?0 -
The pubs will be going for a knock down price now, so just buy your own and have a 1 man lock-in. There are worse ways to self-isolate.tlw1 said:

Oh, I bought quite a lot of pineapple in Wimbledon M&S food hall earlier. It, along with some fruit salad, was the only thing left in the fresh fruit and veg section. Obviously I live some distance from sungod. I fear it would have broken his heart to see his beloved fruit so lonely on the shelves, accompanied only by a tawdry melange of assorted unhappy melon and grapes.0

Surely SG must rescue said Pineapple?
Or call the RSPCP.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

Yeah it's daft: close the pubs immediately, dont all go out tonight and mingle, yet they have stock that won't keep so they'll be trying to flog it all.Stevo_666 said:
