Does anyone know the true facts about being able to go shopping if over 70 and have no underlying medical condition. Iam lead to understand it is
safe to do so and if you keep away from pubs,theatres ect.
Derek, as of today, you or anyone can do as they please, no one should try and stop them.
Although the recommendation is to stay away from others and don't put your hands near your face. So you could walk round a park, uncrowded areas with no problem.
However, if you do go out, try and keep 2 metres/6 feet from others just in case they cough or sneeze near you.
You will be touching things when you're out, so don't put your hands or gloved hands near your face, because the virus can only be contacted through your nose, mouth or eyes.
When you get in wash your hands immediately & thoroughly with soap & hot/warm water.
To ensure our more vulnerable and elderly customers can shop in-store, we will prioritise one hour every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning between 9-10am (except in our Express stores) and ask that you respect this.
I think if any over seventies are found on the street then they should be shot without warning, as a sixty-two year old it seems the only way to stop these old farts from wandering aimlessly

I am going to start using Wiltshire Farm Foods, is there anyone who uses them are has done in the past? just like to know what you thought about them.
I’ve seen their adverts and they look ok. Maybe give them a try for a week or so. At least you would expect to get a delivery. But don’t forget you can always ask for help on here. If you need any shopping there will always be someone willing to assist. You are part of the CL family x
Anyone else expecting trouble trying to keep their elderly loved ones at home? My 92 year old mother in law keeps going on about going to the shops and going on the bus, although we've said we'll sort her shopping out for her. I fully understand that she doest want to feel restricted or that she's losing her independence, but for someone of her age it could literally be a life or death decision.

Yes I will give them a go, thank you for your kind words

Same here...we'll need army patrols to remove pensioners from the streets!

I ordered a pack of clinical face masks on Amazon, the ETA was mid April, they arrived by post today. At least if things get desperate I can do a quick 'supermarket sweep' without being recognised. I just hope the masks weren't made in Wuhan ((:>)

No we'll need Army patrols to control the greedy bastard hoarders who clear the shelves by their selfish behaviour.

You can't wear them to the supermarket, Lincs ..... you're over 70 and not allowed out.
Although they'll come in handy for your next DIY job in the house, when you're doing the sanding.

I used Wiltshire Farm Foods for many years, delivering dinners to my mum when she was alive. She had dementia so they were a bit of a life saver, knowing she was getting meals delivered. Very reliable service.
Whilst the meal portions were fine for mum, they may be a bit small for a full grown man.

Sorry Lincs, but medical expert on TV said, if you do not have the virus, wearing a mask can do more harm than good and if you do have the virus wearing a mask will not stop you from spreading it, she went into detail, but you have the jist

I think Lincs ordered the masks just to make the game 'operation' more authentic when he plays it over the next 12 weeks Ross 😉.

So yes you can go shopping observing the above.
