BREAD

Bought a new x-box S 1TB got the full games 1-5 go Gears of War voucher codes to download  as well as The Division 2 which came as a disc with the console and of course I had to buy Lara Croft in Shadow Of The Tomb Raider .If I have to self isolate I ain't being bored .

Coronavirus has hit the shops near us ,  at first it was not noticeable today there was a huge difference not just the supermarkets but local farm shops there was just less produce chicken breasts at one farm shop had sold out other meat was plentiful like bacon and sausage lets face it if you have food for a decent breakfast you won't starve tomatoes and mushrooms and other fresh veg was ok not many swedes but plenty of eggs baked beans was still available and tinned spaghetti .

Manage to buy toilet rolls not to stock pile them because we need them ,  and not forgetting the animals I bought extra cat and dog both wet food and biscuits we have four mouths to feed .
Also bought paraocetamols cough medicine and ibubrofen as well as flu remedies not sure if they will do any good better to have them than not I guess .

Had a email from Cineworld saying it was closing all venues till further notice I think also the Vue and others are also closing their doors .A new pub opened down the road from us a cool one million pounds that they spent on  refurbishment ,  it opened its doors last Thursday shit timing or what it is called The Bowshaw Trout hope it survives ok and I just might get to go in for a pint or two hopefully .



Been using coffee pods for my Nescafe Dolce  Gusto  machine for quite a while but bought some Nescafe ground barista coffee and brown sugar as well as more tea bags for Helen other stuff I bought was a couple of curries and pizzas as well as bread and laundry detergent pods and fabric softener, some of the shelves where empty canned meat there was none , soup and dried pasta was in stock dried powdered milk none yeast and bread flour none Helen can't live without bread she wanted the ingredients to bake her own we finally got a couple of bags of bread flour and packets of yeast oil and eggs that we have , just add a bread baker machine £129 if she only uses it once its going to be an very expensive loaf .

Did no jobs around the house today I went to the tip early in the morning with more rubbish we are still waiting for our green and balk bins from the council they still have not delivered them .

We have gone to council tax band B which is a few pounds a month more than what we paid for the static home but gas and electric have dropped by £50  and it is a warm house so it might drop even further.

Another thing we have is a milkman who not only delivers milk but potatoes and eggs and of course fresh orange juice .
