We usually get Sainsbury's on a Tues evening. I walked home from work this Tuesday and saw a brave Sainbury's delivery driver edging up Sydenham Hill in the snow - by the time I got home they phoned to say all their deliveries were cancelled. Walked to the Sainsbury's local the following morning and lugged back half a week's groceries on my back.
ocado cancelled yesterday's delivery due to the snow, but then the man actualy turned up only about an hour late. what a lovely guy. so maybe they will turn up as the delivery drivers seem pretty determined and the guy was put out that they were texting and emailing to cancel when he was still on his way. good luck x

I'm going to be loathed for this, but I got a leaflet in my letter box today advertising a local farm shop that delivers IN ALL WEATHERS (we're in the country nowadays and our snow is bad). They're coming tomorrow morning and their fayre includes chocolate cake! two fingers to you woosy supermarkets!


My gripe du jour is how irritating it is to breastfeed through layers and layers of clothes.... I can't even find my boobs nowadays!

Oh my goodness - have HUGE Christmas delivery due on Tuesday (catering for 9 on the big day, and 7 on Christmas Eve).


I hope they turn up, otherwise I am going to be doing an emergency dash at some unlikely hour when hopefully the supermarket isn't too packed.


Those who use Ocado, have you seen they are offering their annual delivery pass for about ?40 at the moment (?70 off the normal price)....free delivery all year once signed up - wooo hoo....

    • Hi there, Our Lexus NX300H, (reg RF18BWO) was stolen off our driveway last night, Monday 27th October. It was there at 9pm, and had gone by 7am. If anyone has any footage on their doorbell or Ring, that would be super helpful. We have asked some neighbours and reported to the police etc.  Most upsettingly, there was a box of old family videos in the car boot, in an old Sainsburys box (photo attached). If anyone sees these dumped at the side of the road, please contact me asap! They are priceless videos that my deceased grandparents took. Thank you for any info, Jojo  
    • Another shout out for Milk & More - their app allows you to alter the order, add or subtract to it and also to schedule holiday stops without having to leave messages in bottle - so more secure. You do have to set up a direct debit with them, but I haven't had any problems with that myself. I have had one or two missed or late deliveries in several years, but not really a problem - only very occasional and caused mainly by delivery-person illness. And very much feels like an old-fashioned milk delivery. They do special seasonal offers as well. More expensive than the cheapest of the super market milk prices, but for that its at your door, fresh and no bother.
    • Enjoying the nostalgia and memories.  As with others, we get ours through Milk and More (is part of big co, so there is that against it, but it's hardly a secret/niche thing) - returnable glass bottles of milk, orange juice, yoghurt, and much more besides (as per the name). And yes it comes in the middle of the night in an electric vehicle. So can still get out nostalgia fix, doubled when the Riverford chap comes too. 
    • This sounds like what goes on at Tessa Jowell GP surgery as well as others.   If you can flag yourself up as a ‘vulnerable’ patient or one that can’t use Apps for whatever reason etc then you can usually make appts by phone. They would have to make allowances. Quote the Equality Act 2010,  reasonable adjustments section.
