Morning.

Super eerie walk to work. Just too quiet. I mean, it's handy at night when I want a sleep but otherwise, nah.
 
back in the city. it's noisy, there are no birds, and I already feel ILL :evil:
 
Good morning. The one thing I'm enjoying about this whole ordeal is that every day is dress down day at work. I've an entire wardrobe full of chavvy sportswear that's finally getting an airing.
 
The road outside my house is dead, and its weird. I dont want traffic to come back though.
 
I had to drive to work to pick up some payroll yesterday. The dual-carriageway drive was surreal, it's reasonably busy all the time usually but I kept looking in the rear-view mirror to see whether a car would appear in the distance behind me because there were none in front of me. Like 28 Days Later.

Only 11 or 12 to go!

I nearly just said "TWO METRES, PRICK!" to a senior manager but realised who it was quickly enough to stop before I got to the last word. :D
 
On the bus to work. Reduced to a Sunday service and still the only person on the top deck.

Rather magnificently, I notice that they have changed the person doing the 'next stop' announcements to a woman with a hilarious Bristolian accent.

CHEERS DRIVE
 
Oh, and :DAF: of me I know, but the significance of 'Future Nostalgia' as an album title hadn't dawned on me until now.

I watched 28 Days Later on Friday night. A bit too realistic!
 
My toilet roll status is now 8. Not a cause for concern, but probably at the point where I might consider taking my next available opportunity.

I grabbed a top up on a beer/snack/egg run Friday. Got to take these opportunities where you can.
 
Has everyone else noticed that Easter eggs are selling bog all? The supermarkets have stacks of them and they are not shifting.
 
Morning gang

the shops don’t seem so bad . My little Tesco have gone on full distancing with spray painted 5ft lines down the street and barricades everywhere .

and the woman in front of me was thrilled at the amount of LIVER on offer

If you can get to Lidl in Nuneaton, they had shitloads of the stuff when I was there over the weekend. Tinned tomatoes as well.

my friend's grandmother would fry a pack of DUCK HEARTS in the morning and snack on them throughout the day (along with a couple of bottles of red)

I usually buy an Easter egg for all the family and give some money whilst visiting over the Easter period, but that ain’t going to happen this year.

"Excuse me Sir, could you tell me the purpose of your trip today?"

"Why yes, officer, i'm driving 121 miles to Lidl in Nuneaton to find some bog roll, because ButterTart told me they had some".

Yes, I google mapped 121 miles. Feel free to backsolve to find out my exact location.
 
Who was it who got an 80p refund from Tesco mobile the other day? I just got one for THREE PENCE along with an ONSCREEN APOLOGY :D

According to the Google you either live in York or Dagenham. My only clue as to which one is correct is that I know you live in York, but I’m stumped otherwise.

Oh, me - it's not due until April 1st but I'm right looking forward to it.
 
Amazon's price promise gave me a whopping 1p refund off the Donna Summer boxset last week.
 
I need to get a new hard drive for my mac, so I was just tidying up before a back up. Found loads of old moopy things including previous scavenger hunt photos and photos from the 'post your best Manson face' competition of 2007
 
Found a c*ck photo too, I know it belongs to someone on here but I cannot remember who.
 
I only remember Tramell (?) in recent times and that one was NOT TOO BAD
