Meanwhile me and a few thousand others have been told not to turn up to work until the 30th, and to add insult to injury, face the prospect of having to wipe our arses on a sock. That's if we don't die of starvation first whilst trying to buy food.
When all this is over, there's going to be a lot of fools with bog roll stacked up to the ceiling and no hope of getting rid of it or using it up inside the next 30 years. And to those who took all the kitchen roll when the bog rolls were gone, I'd say you'd better save a few grand for the plumber, at £530 per call out when the bog blocks up... oh, and I hope you all drown in raw sewage.

Anyhoo, basically, I agree with all Ripper types but we must remember we are the descendants of hunter gathers so our brains could well be wired at the back to do the modern day equivalent of seeing food on the hoof or there for gathering so the modern day equivalent kicks-in and we start collecting for our tribe with nary a thought for the tribe across the valley.
This instinct may well be buried in the back of our brains but the way the media have been sensationalizing this cough with views of empty shelves, then cutting to the deserted streets of a city not too far away accompanied by scary words such as ‘...in total lockdown and we may only be days away from the same here...’ then it’s little wonder folk are overdoing the shop. The media; calm it down and ramp it up.
Add to that the schools closing, thus many hundreds of thousands of households facing the filling of many more tummies every lunchtime for who knows how long, and you’ve generated the perfect storm for yet more hysterical shopping.
I did notice a few young fellows pushing a full trolley - while pulling an equally full trolley - towards their four by fours and you just knew all that stuff was heading to the shelves of that nice Mr Patel’s corner shop to be marked up at obscenely inflated prices.
Next step? Who knows but with the bank rate now just one tick above zero, keep a wary eye on your bank...

The first thing I want to make clear Mac, is that I was talking about the folks you describe - the ones with the 4x4 and not only 2 trolleys, but the missus has two as well. People like yourself and the elderly who are at high risk (not from the fake virus, but starvation) need to have priority. Some of our local supermarkets have 1 hour sessions for the elderly and NHS workers, but they still face empty shelves. This from OldRightie:

To add to that, my daughter is a senior staff nurse at the hospital, and she tells me that these low life scum have been stealing bottles of hand sanitizer from the beds in the wards.
I'm calling it a fake virus - that isn't entirely true. There is a virus but the fake part is the scaremongering by a few organizations through the media. It is this that has panicked the sheep and it has been intentional. Wherever you look for information, certain names crop up constantly - Event 201 (check that one out), The John Hopkins Centre, The WHO, Bill Gates. Its not the virus that's being used against ordinary people, but the FEAR of the virus. Its all about control.

As for the ringpiece washer, the bathroom and toilet are now done, besides there's no way I'm going to do that with freezing cold water. The shower is equipped with much the same thing. My parents had a much better idea and that was wash cloths. I haven't run out of loo roll just yet but when I do I'll just go Victorian. I can do that - I grew up in my grandmother's house with no electricity and gas lighting. We didn't use toilet roll at all, just as my kids never had expensive disposable nappies. But I digress - I am beginning to enter the world of Monty Python's Yorkshiremen.
