My daughter phoned last night and asked if I could pick her some nappies up as her local supermarket had run out. No problem I said I'll get my mrs to pick some up when she does her shop around 9 o'clock. Anyway, on my way in work this morning at 2 o'clock I had a brainstorm, I'll nip into the local Asda and pick a couple up. Fuck me, I expected the place to be empty, the place was like a bomb site, empty boxes and products littered the aisles and staff were struggling to cope. I'm not very good at supermarkets but eventually found the nappies and my way is blocked by, let's call them 'a couple of Asian ladies' obviously mom and daughter loading 2 trolleys. A woman, trying to reach for some nappies for herself asked the two women if they would mind leaving some for other people One of the 'Asian ladies' snapped back, I've got 3 kids! To which I stepped in, looked in the trolleys noticed the nappies were all the same size and politely asked if all 3 kids were the same age?
It's mental. My niece is leaving asda but she's a manager in it now. She sent me a pic yesterday of women actually scrapping in the aisle over nappies. And what the fuck is the obsession with pasta suddenly??!! Does people think this is gonna go all Walking Dead??? Jesus wept.
There's one question about this whole thing that the world wants to know. And its quite simple..... is there really a chance the dippers won't win the league.

Rows of empty shelves in Tesco. World's gone fucking barmy.
They closed our main Tesco's last night at 11, it's a 24hr and reopened again at 6 this morning. Yesterday folks were standing by the empty shelves waiting for them to be stocked and those that had filled their trollies were having stuff nicked out of them and fights were breaking out around the store, so management decided in the interests of public safety closed the store. When the store opened this morning it kicked off again.

Shit rags like the Daily Mail don't help, sensationalism and fear causing pandemonium.
