With apologies to Silver Foxy, noticed the last thread filled up.

As you were, keep swinging

Mr Fox, you absolute legend. Thank you for doing that.

A special mention to Chunky Gent too, sterling work keeping the last thread going and engaging people.

It's what it's all about

Had a last minute present to get - was at the shop bang on opening this morning. In and out in 10 minutes.

It was getting busy as I left. Good luck.

I'm working all over Christmas, so no Christmas shopping for me.

Gifts via Amazon. Beer from Brewdog. Sorted.

What’s Christmas? Just means work goes mental and the shops are busy with people buying loads of food they don’t need.

Just been to the shops and Tesco was mobbed no trolleys had to ask someone walking to their car if I could have theirs.

Costco forget it couldn’t get a space on the car park and the queue outside just ridiculous.

Where do all these people come from? When do they shop the rest of the year?

Tesco is my equivalent local shop so I go there 2 or 3 times a week. I never do the traditional weekly shop as it is so close. It is always busier of a weekend but Christmas it goes mental.

Does this mean that Lidl Aldi Asda and the rest are empty with Tesco being so full? Do they go at this time of year as a treat?

The queue at Costco was bigger than the Covid queues, do people pay their annual membership to go once a year?

What will these places be like tomorrow when folks are not at work (well the majority as I will be with just Christmas Day off).

Then they’ll all be back Boxing Day to get sale stuff to pile on the mountain of stuff they already have.

I just don’t get it, the shops shut for one maybe two days. I feel for anyone like me involved in retail supply chain or retail in general.

Afternoon all, “children” arrived home for Christmas …. If I’m honest, I love it and will miss these precious times.

Happy Christmas to everyone and here’s to a fun 2024. x
