    We're lucky as our poo tank doesn't need to be emptied as it's only poo and pee that goes into it the grey water showers/basions and sinks all go to another tank which I use for watering the shurbs in summer Not veg's, the poo tank was cleaned out 30 years ago and is only 1/4 full as no chem's go into it the bacteria brakes it all down but when it needs to be emptied it will be a shovel job :)

        We may all be on A3 size soon....
        :sofa:

        I only tear off 2 sheets instead of 3 now. Fold each sheet to middle and use carefully...it works. I buy 3 ply...the roll will last 1/3rd longer this way.

            The Italians have shown us what will happen - they've already been through this panic buying phase. Shops simply need to keep filling up the shelves - when people see there is no shortage - they will stop panic buying.

            Gov't and food suppliers are working together to make sure that the food is on the shelves - relaxing delivery times; protecting delivery drivers (their kids will still attend school) and switching production to concentrate on making more of a smaller variety of foods. I understand that Morrisons (and others possibly) are ramping up their home delivery service.

            There is no food crisis - people won't eat more - the problem is people being selfish.

              People must surely be running out of room to store all this stuff, not to mention the money to buy it?

                I see that B&Q have sent their 'at risk' employees home - on full pay. This is what it's all about - everyone doing their bit and pulling in the same direction.

                Well done B&Q I say.

                    and...Virgin Media have just given their customers extra data and minutes - for free - so it's easier for them to keep in contact. It's times like this when you really know which companies have your back covered.

                      Well, if you have plenty of Rabbits where you are, Jiffy, then you could do what the Bear did in the joke about the Bear and the Rabbit:dunno::whistle::heehee::cat-kittyandsmiley::coffee:

                        We have help to do the heavy work in the garden once or twice a month. He was due today but has a chesty cough (he's pretty certain that it's not the virus) but he emailed to say he won't come, just in case (even though we don't need to see him). We wished him better and told him we would pay him anyway. I think he was relieved :blue thumb:
