We couldn't get Milk and More when we wanted to sign up. Then Modern milkman came to door and offered a service, so we took it up. In fairness when it worked it was fine, it's the inability to solve issues effectively when things don't go right. We've been left without product with no warning too many times now.
I've been cleaning and organising the house today. I'm at the point where I've made loads of mess and my motivation has run out Maybe I'll take the dog for a walk and hope it sorts itself out while we're gone.
On another note, why does predictive text predict emojis now? If I type dog it insists I should use a picture of a dog instead. Do people really type 'I'm going to 🚶♂️ the 🐕'?
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
I just looked at our surgery website, Says if you need an appointment phone the surgery number, if it’s urgent phone 111 if it’s life threatening phone 999. Seems some places are very complicated.
My curmudgeon, Booked my grocery delivery slot, put a couple of items in the basket to secure, thought it was for Thursday, didn’t check because of visitors and constant meals and drinks rounds, got a text just before he came, shopping’s on the way. Extra £9.00 . £5.00 delivery, £4.00 packing and I didn’t want any of it. he said I could have phoned and cancelled as soon as I got the text, would have been alright but don’t get text until 4 hours after they sent it.
He could have taken it all back but I felt sorry that he trekked all the way out here for nothing, so I accepted it, then went shopping for what I needed. I haven’t been shopping for years, won’t be going again.

We've been waiting in for a delivery today of a clock. Made of glass. You've guessed, when we opened the package it had a lovely big crack down the front of it. Now we have to go to all the faff of returning it ,meaning an unexpected trip out to a PO and then filling in all the stuff on line to get a refund.
Even our 16yr old doesn't do that @wild edges, tho we do now have to make sure she goes out to pee and poo a few times a day as she's had one or two accidents but not since we realised she wasn't asking to go out any more.
