@Duchessofblandings that doesn’t sound like a bad weekend to me lol 😂 might see if I can get some Pringle’s, I have to throw out the trash and pop to the local shop if it’s open. My neighbor next door has a really bad cough so a little worried about that.

Haven't been out today, but when I went yesterday about half the people out were elderly, buying bread and so on. Not many people, but it was Sunday. No idea today, haven't been out and probably won't go unless MIL needs something.

Nameisthegame · 16/03/2020 11:53

Spoken to a police officer and she said we can still work in the restaurant which is good news. The buses that went past are really empty.

9191 cases now.

Novia · 16/03/2020 13:03

Snowing here! Luckily we have a private play park next to us which extends the space the kids can roam. Today has actually been great as they just ran around outside for almost 2 hours so DH and I could get some work done. Also it will have dissuaded people from venturing out I expect.

🤚🏻 welcome to the gang @pugwash1!

It's quiet here, raining a lot. DC did some maths this morning and are now working their way through Harry Potter films. Thank goodness for Netflix!

Our online delivery is due between 1-3pm. Really hoping it comes. I'll be grateful if we get half of it.

Does anyone know/have experience of the following...

Will I need I.D to go to Mercadona?
Can I go with DD (11) to help carry things or do I have to go alone?
Will Mercadona have restrictions in place?
Will there be booze Grin

All quiet here. The opera singer is playing her flute. She must realise we are all forced to listen the repetitions over and over... selfish, selfish.

Nameisthegame · 16/03/2020 13:48

This is where you can keep updated

BillieEilish · 16/03/2020 13:48

@PotsOfPebbles thanks so much for that Flowers

PotsOfPebbles · 16/03/2020 13:50

Our class whatapp shared it. Please pass it on to others if you have a class group.

Novia · 16/03/2020 13:55

@BillieEilish - they are saying only one member of the family goes out so you might get hassle if you take your son. I don't think they are restricting as many places don't have anything to restrict. Definitely stick up on booze!

@PotsOfPebbles - fab, thanks. I've forwarded to Spanish DH who is in charge of homework! I also have some English language links from my sister. I'll share shortly...

elQuintoConyo · 16/03/2020 14:16

Great fort! DS banged his head badly, so it's been dismantled Sad

Still waiting to know if we've got a work meeting actually in work, or if we have to hold it via Hangouts.

DH off to spar in a minute for a top up: milk, eggs. We've got ALL the Tetley tea bags our nearest Mercadona sells Grin not that many Brits around here.

Here's our weather!

You know you can freeze eggs and bananas if you have space in the freezer and don't want to go out for then again.

Our online delivery isn't here yet. Hoping the rain is delaying things.

Novia · 16/03/2020 14:23

I have about 7 deliveries due from Amazon today but no sign...

elQuintoConyo · 16/03/2020 14:26

I don't really want to bulk buy eggs or fresh food, thinking about others who cannot afford more than their usual weekly shop.

The only store delivering food here is el corte ingles, mercadona is giving delivery dates of April!

elQuintoConyo · 16/03/2020 14:27

Amazon are still delivering?? I could do with getting the Horrible Hstories series of books, DS devoured the Rotten Romans!
