Re: Coronavirus - Strange times

It's a bit like the 'hygiene theatre' of being asked to clean your trolley handle on the way into a store. I stopped bothering with that some time back. I quite like to have a clean trolley / basket in general, especially if I've got any loose vegetables to purchase, when you see the state of some ...

Re: Coronavirus - Strange times

I don't know, it was only a couple of weeks ago I was arguing with someone who was insulting me for not being able to wear a mask and telling me "normality is never coming back". I genuinely, genuinely wonder who these people are and why you continue to talk to them when they clearly have...

Re: Coronavirus - Strange times

I don't know, it's been strangely comforting to have the styrofoam cup come back into fashion.

Re: The Very Official McDonalds (and other fast food outlets) Thread

Re: Another High Street Rebrand

Don't really know where to put this but it doesn't need a new thread. Went to B&Q in Aintree last week, and they've removed the self-service checkouts. Looking on Twitter, it appears they've done this in other locations too. Apparently it's because of too many people stealing. Went to B&Q l...
