Velociraptor Jun 2020 3:07pm, 1 Jun 2020 46,851 posts	0 Velociraptor I'd have had just enough time to get to work if there hadn't been hideous traffic and road works. It's minor because what are they going to do, sack me?

Fragile Do Not Bend Jun 2020 1:48pm, 5 Jun 2020 6,125 posts	0 Fragile Do Not Bend Drove off to the post office as it closed at 2pm when I went a month or so ago, got there to find it’s closed for lunch 1-2 (but then open again until 5pm). I can’t keep up.
Winniefree Jun 2020 4:13pm, 5 Jun 2020 1,682 posts	0 Winniefree Finally plucked up the courage to go to the garden centre. Shelves are bare, as are my hanging baskets!
LazyDaisy Jun 2020 5:13pm, 5 Jun 2020 30,345 posts	0 LazyDaisy I'm glad I ordered my bedding plants from the milkman as I heard tales of hour-long queues when the garden centres re-opened, and guessed they might not have much left by the time the queuing died down. Could you find some 'Tumbling Tom' plants in the supermarket perhaps Winnie?
Winniefree Jun 2020 8:10pm, 5 Jun 2020 1,683 posts	0 Winniefree I’m going to try a different place in the morning. I haven’t been to a supermarket since lockdown started and the queues to get in our local one are huge.
Surrey Phil Jun 2020 8:11pm, 5 Jun 2020 4,067 posts	0 Surrey Phil Work laptop crashed towards the end of the day. Still got the work done on my own PC but now I cannot use Skype for Business for phone calls and meetings. Don't ask, it's a technical issue for which I have raised both problems with my IT department before calling it a day.
Fizz :-) Jun 2020 8:13pm, 5 Jun 2020 3,915 posts	0 Fizz :-) My petunias from Thompson & Morgan arrived sadly dead. I rang around a few places and none of them had any bedding plants. I even tried B&M I’ve just put some nasturtium seeds in the baskets.
