Now the Friday night quiz has finished, and it was a really nice diversion at the peak of the lockdown, the next thing is the get together party. Saturday 15th August, plenty of games and entertainment already planned, but no quiz. 12 people, legally allowed, all in our garden/house, all having a great time.

faraway saint Posted July 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 Just at back in the car after first shopping trip wearing a mask. Utter shite experience. Feck wearing one on the plane all the way to Tenerife. 👎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit early to tell but that trip I took to Asda was the first time I haven't had to stand in a queue to get in. Once in there were very few people around compared to a week or so back. Aldi was the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldi was the same. There's not much choice in food shopping, unless people want to starve but it might have an effect on other types of shopping. Dundee was fairly quite today but we deliberately went early to miss any possible crowds. It was my first time and there will be a period of getting used to them but I'll avoid shopping if possible. As I said, it's 100% a deal breaker on any holiday plans for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldi was the same. I've never been in Asda or Aldi. Good stores, I'm sure. Compete on price rather than quality I'm told but that's from others who haven't shopped there. Waitrose, Marks or Sainsbury's for me. Lower prices in A and in A might explain why they have been busier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even without masks, a holiday abroad isn't going to be enjoyable right now for most people with all the restrictions going on. Especially with the cost of it.

No idea why you've lumped me in with that lot but allow me to bail right now. That'll bring it down the the 12 FS mentioned.
