Would you like some alcohol gel with your tea?

Can I bring my kids into the supermarket or are children banned?

We only have enough PPE for 2 shifts, do we stick to guidelines or do we have to ask staff to wash them?

Oh my god I've found some oval shaped cotton pads!

"Excellent. I'm gonna need that."

I told my three cats that we have run out of cat food, so they went back to sleep on the end of my bed !

Did you disinfect the door handle after you came in?
Is your household symptom free? (Arranging delivery from small business before lockdown) they answered yes but I will wear gloves and a scarf over my face
There are parcels on the doorstep. Do you want to disinfect them?

No you can’t have anymore cornflakes. I had to fight 5 people for that box.

BackseatCookers · 31/03/2020 19:19

I wish i could go into the office and to the gym.
Never thought I'd say that!

PS, I am from the Black Country originally, so Cup-a-soup was also uttered in a Dave Hill Slade accent.

safariboot · 31/03/2020 19:15

It's not reasonable to go out just to buy cola.

“Mum said she’s got a bag of veggie sausages we can have! This is like Christmas!!”

Customer 'are you accepting cash'
Me ' nope"

I work in pharmacy by the way 😂

middleager · 31/03/2020 19:13

We might need that cup-a-soup if we're ill, so just have toast instead. Confused
