Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

[COYBL25]

The public have been locked up and are fed up. Shopping today will be good for them. It will die down.

A lot of people haven`t been able to spend on anything other than essentials during all this and I imagine quite a few are cash rich at the moment, even more so with no foreign holidays on the horizon.

My missus buys stuff because she likes shopping, which I`ve never understood and I`m guessing for a lot of the women in these queues, they get pleasure from it, despite the queues.

I went to Manchester from Blackburn ice rink one summer wearing a hoody, joggers etc. It was about 30 degrees.

Theres one in Ghent now right where you hop off the tram in the centre.

It still calls to my teenage self.

Not everything can be gourmet food and designer clothes.

People like a quick fix and that’s what the likes of McDonald’s and primark are.

I get my shorts from primark. Considering you can only really wear them about ten times a year I want them as cheap as possible.

No one can deny the excitement of seeing this when turning round a corner in a foreign city,

Never got the appeal of the mad rushes to get into these shops like primark, I know they are super cheap but I’d sooner pay a bit more to not have to be crammed into these stores like cattle with a bunch of scruffs, better yet have none of these people heard of online shopping
