The pubs round here seem to be closing down due to staff being off sick.  We had a booking at the local to have a meal with friends last Wednesday and the pub phoned us to cancel due to not having kitchen staff.  They stayed open for drinks but since then two more locals have closed.

A neighbour was telling us that she started to shop in Asda yesterday and then discovered the single file for the till went right round the shop and the wait in it was two hours!

I've been thinking about starting to use Scan & Go and that seems like a better idea now!

I don't think I'll manage a little drinkie unless we venture out to the shops.  All we have left over is a little bit of brandy.

Always the problem when you start Christmas with only a couple of cases each

Like Alex I had a pink gin and tonic, or two, yesterday evening, OH was on the malt in honour of Hogmanay.  Face timed with son and family, and went to bed about 1am. Fell asleep on sofa after lunch, no drinks tonight!

i never associated Beruit with Terry Waites.... i know it was always looked on as the pearl in the oyster, a place of beauty and wonder, destroyed no doubt by greed, but has been quiet since 1990-ish
but desperate as i am...naaarrr...lol..
