"I don't know any of this stuff either, let's see if we can find a clearer explanation on google"

that was for year 4 maths. FML.

Wow that was a fantastic char with the checkout assistant in Tesco.

(I am miserable and hate it when I have to make small talk with strangers normally)

Do we have to go home, can we not just keep driving for a while.

(On the way home from the supermarket.)

I have good news - I managed to get a click and collect slot! (very excitedly...)

Are we desperate enough to get the emergency biscuits out boot of car?

DH " don't leave that sack of potatoes there someone might nick them" I'd put them by car on our long drive in a quite village 😂

Gingerkittykat · 31/03/2020 22:34

For fucks sake, the car park is half empty why can't people socially distance their cars. There is no need to park anywhere near me!

AdoraBell · 31/03/2020 22:37

To DH

You sit in the car, I’ll do the shopping.

He saw couples going into the supermarket on Sunday so thought we could both do the shopping like normal.

PegLegAntoine · 31/03/2020 22:39

OH MY GOD YOU GOT CARROTS!!!

Yes, I pretty much shouted as I was THAT excited.

MayTheGodsBeEverInYourFavour · 31/03/2020 22:41

We're rationing the fruit
And the chocolate
You can wear that another day...

Addictedtohotbaths · 31/03/2020 22:41

To the CEO, sorry I cut you off earlier, I had an Ocado slot and I needed to check out within an hour

‘Get in we’ve got some chicken in the freezer: maybe if I cook the shit out of it it’ll be ok’ (we’ve been veggie for over two years Grin

"No you can't go to the shop again we went on Sunday."

"No we can't go out for a walk we've had our exercise for the day"

sunandrose · 31/03/2020 22:42

Did you bleach the milk bottle?

amazedmummy · 31/03/2020 22:43

Oh and "quick cross the road, someone's coming"

littlealexhorne · 31/03/2020 22:44

'I saw three lots of couples shopping together in M&S, I didn't think that was still allowed'

concernedforthefuture · 31/03/2020 22:44

"I wonder if you'll be furloughed ".

amprev · 31/03/2020 22:45

I can't wait to go and pick up my veg box from the market.

Ginfordinner · 31/03/2020 22:48

"Stay well"
Everyone is saying that round here.

InconvenientPeg · 31/03/2020 22:55

To friends: my parents are lying to me about going out, they said they hadn"t been anywhere but my brother just told me they went to the chemist. It's like having another set of really old, disobedient kids!

And: what date is her birthday? We need to drop the card off so they have enough time to quarantine it before she opens it.

30daysoflight · 31/03/2020 22:56

To my DH a few days ago, "omg I have a delivery slot".

After delivery to my DH, "oh look how much money we have saved. I ordered 70 quids worth of shopping but it only cost us 20 quid". Hmm

HeyLala · 31/03/2020 22:58

I've just baked bread.
Who am I?

“I’ll take tomorrow off as there won’t be enough patients for both of us.”
Said to other nurse yesterday.
Work as surgical nurse in private hospital in Australia.
The calm before the storm as all non urgent surgery cancelled.

To my DP "oh my god, they had olive oil! And flour".
