Hi all, was just wondering if I were to get up at 7am tmw morning to get into Sainsbury?s, is the one at Denmark hill or forest hill likely to be stocked? I have no car and am just buying for one but finding the shops empty last 4 days. Just after the basics like milk, veg etc. Thanks for any advice

Far better to go to the local shops, independents especially. You'll be far more likely to find what you need and you'll be supporting them hugely at this time. I was at the Organic Turkish shop on LL yesterday and, overhearing people's conversations, they'd never been in there before in their life!
Hey, thanks for the advice. I went to Denmark Hill Sainsburys and started queuing at 6.20am.Although I was one of the first to go in there wasn't much food on the shelves. No long life items such as pasta and couscous. Its strange BoJo says that there is enough food for everyone when the supermarkets are empty first thing in the morning. I will try the smaller stores tomorrow.
I was in India in 2002 Bangalore (now Bangalaru) to see the India/England test. A lot of local people told me it would be sold out. I arrived on an overnight train from Hampi (now Hampe) early morning and decided to go straight to the stadium in search of tickets. A sleepy security guard told me not to be stupid and to wait until the ticket office opened late morning. Imagine my embarrassment. That was the Last time I took any notice of panic buying.

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
