What a pain, Soo. Thank goodness M&S had what you needed. I must admit I have always found Tesco to be hopeless at Christmas, so M&S was always the destination at that time of year when we were on the island - the only other alternative being the execrable Shoprite, which was hopeless at any time of year.

I find our Tesco online delivery service is not bad at all
The pickers seem to pick the best fresh food and are very decent about the odd delivery that is substituted
I n the new year Dunnes delivery service shall be tried

Tesco deliveries have been good for me most of the time, Twellsy, itās just at Christmas that it all goes to pot*
*Now thereās a thought, if that were taken literally it could improve Christmas, now I come to think of it.

I have never tried it, TFM. Fags & booze take the edge orff here.
The only deliveries I have had have been from Asda, & they email when something isnāt in stock & arsk if you will accept substitutions.
They deliver fags & booze tooā¦

Weāll be visiting neighbours for a NYE curry. Another guest has been in contact, today, with her poorly demented hubby in his nursing home abode. He tested positive for Covid, this morning and we have been asked if weād prefer that this guest stay at homeā¦Mr Bee has answered in the affirmative, I am kwoffing a Fino sherry with the invidious nature of it all.

There was entertainment here regarding my bluddy blood
My INR as expected dropped like a stone and so I said to start with cover of heparin
The nurse called the doctor and she called the consultant who said to wait till tomorrow to see what happened with extra rat poison
Ye Bull came charging in and the schoolgirl in scrubs arrived to discuss meds
Suffice it to say that I now have heparin injected into me to keep my blood running
