          They are essential for mixing with pressed apple pulp, steam juice extracted blackberry pulp, etc., which I produce over 500lbs of p.a. Those oversize Amazon boxes are good, once you've got the black tape off.

            From the beeb:

            Tesco has introduced purchasing limits on some products including eggs, rice, soap and toilet roll.

            Do people never learn?

              Having said that I've been on my last shopping trip to two towns today and there's no sign of Panic buying and that was confirmed by the staff at the Tills.:cat-kittyandsmiley::coffee:

                I'm sure that the reporting on the national news channels and especially the Jeremy Vine panic show. Will soon ensure that the shelves will be empty by xmas eve.

                  Apparently stuff is still coming into the country, the problem is they cant get back.
                  Kind of shows how we have become so dependent on Europe.
                  Over the years they have systematically moved, even our own companies, into Europe.

                    Well, yes, because it was advantageous to do so :scratch:

                        If I remember correctly, the shelves used to be stripped bare of gardening stuff in early September. To be replaced with Christmas deccies :thud:

                            I read somewhere yesterday that the problem at Dover represents 3.7% of all UK freight, so whilst not a small number it is also not earth shattering either

                              But who made it advantageous?
