We usually get Sainsbury's on a Tues evening. I walked home from work this Tuesday and saw a brave Sainbury's delivery driver edging up Sydenham Hill in the snow - by the time I got home they phoned to say all their deliveries were cancelled. Walked to the Sainsbury's local the following morning and lugged back half a week's groceries on my back.
ocado cancelled yesterday's delivery due to the snow, but then the man actualy turned up only about an hour late. what a lovely guy. so maybe they will turn up as the delivery drivers seem pretty determined and the guy was put out that they were texting and emailing to cancel when he was still on his way. good luck x

I'm going to be loathed for this, but I got a leaflet in my letter box today advertising a local farm shop that delivers IN ALL WEATHERS (we're in the country nowadays and our snow is bad). They're coming tomorrow morning and their fayre includes chocolate cake! two fingers to you woosy supermarkets!


My gripe du jour is how irritating it is to breastfeed through layers and layers of clothes.... I can't even find my boobs nowadays!

Oh my goodness - have HUGE Christmas delivery due on Tuesday (catering for 9 on the big day, and 7 on Christmas Eve).


I hope they turn up, otherwise I am going to be doing an emergency dash at some unlikely hour when hopefully the supermarket isn't too packed.


Those who use Ocado, have you seen they are offering their annual delivery pass for about ?40 at the moment (?70 off the normal price)....free delivery all year once signed up - wooo hoo....

    • PCSOs may not need specific qualifications, but they go through a reasonably rigorous recruitment process. Or at least they used to. It may have changed.
    • The ones I've dropped into may be organised by PCSOs in the SNT but regular PCs have attended. They have actually been a cuppa with a copper, but not necessarily loads of them. 
    • @Pereira Neves "Cuppa with a Coppa" is a misrepresentation as PCSOs are not real police.   They have no more powers of arrest that any public citizen. They may have the "authority" to advise the regular police of a crime - just like Joe Public. One exception is that they can issue fixed penalty notices to people who cycle on a footpath. We see people cycling on the footpath every day but have never seen a PCSO issue a fixed penalty notice to anybody. No  qualifications are needed to become a PCSO.  At best, all they do is reassure and advise the public with platitudes.      
    • Right.  Already too many people saying “labour pushed for longer and more stringent lockdowns” which if nothing else, does seem to give credence the notion that yes people can be brainwashed    Nothing ...  Nothing Labour pushed for was about longer lockdowns.  Explicitly, and very clearly they said “lock down early OR we will be locking down for longer “   ie they were trying to prevent the longer lockdowns we had   But “positive thinking” and “nothing to see here” from Johnson led to bigger problems    as for the hand-wavery about the economic inheritance and markets being spooked by labour budget - look - things did get really really and under last government and they tried to hide it.  So when someone tries to address it, no one is going to be happy.  But pretending all was tickety boo is a child’s response
