Six months ago almost all of DS's friends hit twenty within weeks of each other, in the main amongst other things they were pinging each pictures of family meals in restaurants and glasses of champagne and the food they had ordered they were all commenting in the group chat.

Today DS finally managed to get petrol and pinged a photo of a full tank to the group, cue lots of you lucky sod, where did you manage to get that.

Oh how times have changed. GrinGrin

Eh?

Not that difficult really, in May it was all champagne and nice meals out, today they are (due to shortages )excited by a full tank of petrol.

Be pasta next. Grin

You joke about the pasta but our Tesco had run out of everything except wholewheat pasta on Monday!

Glad he got some fuel. I can imagine DS texting his mates in a similar way!

Last year I caused jealousy by posting a picture of a bag of flour I had managed to buy!

No, but really uninteresting. I’m pretty sure ‘fuel gloating’ is an old trope now. It’s certainly not worth a post

People that ‘get it’. Hilarious. Panic buying. There was no fuel shortage, there was no flour shortage. Just idiots like you lot promoting panic buying
