No such palaver here. Small shops such as pharmacies, butchers, bakers have a queuing system outside and limit numbers inside so no issues. I have seen no jostling, pushing, crowding going on in supermarkets tho they're becoming busier now the numbers limits have been relaxed.

In a local supermarket yesterday, in the queue waiting to pay and two employees were stood behind me almost making contact with me, chatting to each other. No social distancing between them, let alone with the customers.
As a former very shy person it can be very hard. I know a bloke who is terminally shy and has massive anxiety about germs and this situation is beyond his ability to cope with in public spaces.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
I want some rain and everyone else getting some is making me very envious. Yes, we've had a couple of showers, but they've lasted a few minutes and the pavements are barely wet. Precisely nothing has arrived in my water butts.

Oh dear @B3 weather is not what it used to be in the good old days! I just got soaked through in the 5mins it took to get the shredder out of the shed for my daughter - 20mins later its bright sundshine!
