Only borders recently. Swansea born and bred but then moved “abroad” to England for 30 years before coming back when Mr WD retired.

Re: Panic buying
Local binmen are posting about the amount of rotting food being thrown out (nearly all still wrapped) by households.
Disgusting. But to be expected as the stuff I saw people buying could not have been consumed by the sell by dates.

Re: Panic buying
I panic bought two rolls of toilet paper and two egg boxes! And quorn. There was little in the house for me to eat, only food for the carnivores....

One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend.

Re: Panic buying
I suppose that means when I (and others of course) feel the need to go shopping next week, the stockpilers will have been out again and panic bought whatever was on the shelves. I wounder how long it's possible to live on bread and jam and rhubarb.
