Panic shops will be closed

oh my goodness the shops will.jpg

It never fails to amuse me the amount of idiots that panic just because the shops are closed for a day. How the feck would they have got on three decades ago when they where closed for the weekend

Or worse still back after the war when rationing was still in place.
'Sorry sir no cheese for the mice this weel your allowance is only two ounces'

Here in Melbourne we have one shopping center open for 72 hours on stop, say they will take about 2 or 3 billion in sales in that time.

But come Boxing day the shops will be full again.

Back in the 1980'sI did an 18 month stint as store manager with what was then Safeways.
Boxing day one of the biggest seller...............toilet paper the shop ran out of it.
Must have been some dodgy tucker then.

Back in those days John even the mice may have looked edible to some. My old man when he came back from Burma would never eat chicken. In later years i found out from him what he thought he was eating in Burma was not chicken but rat, they reckon you cant tell the difference unless you sight the 4 legs and a tail . JS

No mate over here in Melbourne.

It is said if you take a chicken leg cat back leg and Rabbi, skin them they all look alike.
Have eaten Squirrell and that tastes a bit like chicken.

#7 Red or Grey Squirel John or is that crossing the line for prejudice ? Maybe have to ask a woke person who is not a vegetarian ? JS

There is more eating on a Grey Squirrel, being an Amreican import they are bigger. We are often told everything is bigger in America
