No Toilet Rolls, Get yours free ?

[john middleton]

On the Reina del Marle in Callao the shore gang used
our showers as a W.C.
Years later while working as a steward on B.R.
I bought 'Dirty Fido' from a joke shop and when we turned
round in Manchester the cleaners came aboard, I put the
trick turd in the toilet sink, the screams were almost human.
Oh to be young again, such fun.

As more countries order citizens to avoid large public gatherings in order to stop the spread of the disease, the 17-year-old Swede on Wednesday encouraged her followers to “find new ways to create public awareness & advocate for change that don’t involve too big crowds.”

“We can’t solve a crisis without treating it as a crisis and we must unite behind experts and science. This of course goes for all crises,” Greta Thunberg.

She's a pillock

Hi Denis.
It's puzzling times, our PM is putting out a stimulus package to keep shops and business going, but people are out panic buying food and related things like freezers and fridges, which will keep the Power companies and farmers happy at least. I think it the virus is there, but the con is to get people to spend the money they have in the banks, if only.
Cheers Des

Speaking with my GP this morning he says the whole thing is a sham.
He is of the opinion that govs across the globe have got it wrong, it is no worse for the greater majority than a cold.
Those who do get it bad would be treated, we would not have all the crowds asking for tests they do not need.
But govs have panicked and put all the rule sin place so they cannot be sued if it goes wrong for some.

Harvey Norman retail outlets have sold all the freezers they had in stock across the country, well you need somewhere to store all that meat you bought.
As for dunny rolls, it is so long since we saw one that even if they were in the shops I would not know what there are.

But I found a tin of sliced Beetroot, and lets face it you cannot beat a good root, at the very back of a bottom shelf.
But made the mistake of saying I have found it, almost got knocked down in the crush.

One good point, when this is over the shops will not have any 'out of date' food on sale.

A lot of supermarkets here are starting
to open at certain hours just for the
elderly and vunerable etc so they get
not so much priority but, a chance.

Went up this morning to Woolworth's to get a few things, got up early, [for me] 7am. We know some of the staff and they told us a truck was in and they had to work late to fill the shelves. When I got the ,no toilet rolls, and the very thing I went for no spuds, but alongside the empty bin was a pile of kumera, sweet potatoes, even better than spuds for nutrition so was quite happy to get some.
Last evening called in and was talking to a mate, the trolley man, who said there had been pandemonium, {no not pandemic] today, buses from Canberra and hundred kilometers away, and even one from Melbourne about 500 kilometers had raided the shop and stripped it, what the Hell!

LOCAL SUPERMARKET BANS NON-LOCAL SHOPPERS, PM WARNS: NO HOARDING

Riddells Creek Foodworks has taken the extraordinary step of requiring it's customers to prove they live in the area.

Residents in regional areas around Victoria, including Kyneton, Woodend and Castlemaine, have been reporting that people from the city are clearing our their regional supermarkets.

Today Prime Minister Scott Morrison had a blunt message for anyone hoarding food supplies: STOP IT.

"It is not sensible, it is not helpful and it has been one of the most disappointing things I have seen in Australian behaviour in response to this crisis," Mr Morrison said.

Mr Morrison said there was no reason to stockpile huge amounts of food because supermarkets are not closing and there is no food supply shortage

Some are taking bus trips to the country stores in the search for the elusive dunny roll.
But they forget, country people are smarter than those in the city, they ask for ID, not local, bugger off!!
