    Lets see what happens now that trucks can deliver 24 hours a day now.

    I could not see why the restriction anyway the trucks that are used make deliveries to supermarkets make less noise than some of the V8 commodores on the road and wouldn't it be better to have a semi trailer blocking a car park at 2am than 5pm.

    Coles and Woolworths both had toilet paper on the shelves here this morning.
    While at the chemist this morning I also noticed 2 delivery trucks going into coles - things might be getting better.

    Ventolin has been restricted - lucky one of my daughters is a pharmacist.

    I got a dirty look from the chemist staff member when I asked for a new ventolin 2 days ago and I got asked if I really need it. My response was I only need one and if I had not runout I would not be asking.

    Just been to the local iga, noticed some 'anti viral hand wash' made in Australia by some enterprising company.

    $24.50 for 500ml.

    Same aisle , 1l earth options laundry liquid.

    $2.75 for 1l.

    Guess what's going in my hand wash bottle at home.....

    Still no TP in IGA and Aldi, don't shop at Woolies.
    We go after 5pm on Sundays only(Yey today shopping day), to avoid the queues and crowds.
    Glad I bunkered TP and hand sanitiser for $3, long before anybody else thought about it.

    Seems paper is now available here most of the time. Had a limited amount of sanitiser already (its brilliant for getting sap off duco) and found a small supply of isopropyl alcohol and made my own as well.

    TP is rare here too, but not as rare as Glen 20! I've not had troubles keeping up stock of everything except that one product. I only want 1 can, it lasts us, on average, a couple of years, so it isn't as though we drink the stuff!

    Mrs got a 12 Pack of Tp This morning at coles. Wollies has had none for weeks apparently.
    Dad can't get it where he is so Daughter went and bought a pack For him. He's needing a few things done round the place so I think I'll go up next week to look after what he needs and take him the supplies. Can't get Flyspray up there either since about Christmas. Have a bunch of that to take him as well .

    Is going to ones Holiday house still banned?
    I can stay there in isolation away from him or I'll have to stay in the house with Him which makes no Fking sense.
