Gill I think I am really late to the party with these but I have recently "found" them and I think they are a good match.

I will see if I can find any on my travels and I will post them to you if I do although if Walkers say they are working on it I expect it’s national. What flavour just in case?

There's definitely some food shortage out there tho for whatever reason.
Our local Tesco only has Peas and Brussel sprouts in the freezers
The other veg freezers are empty and it’s been like that for around 2 weeks!

I hate the thought that a gentleman of that age can't enjoy such a simple pleasure.

We have a sandwich shop full of them!

Lidl has been random, no wraps for ages, now no bagels. No tinned sweetcorn, coconut milk for a while. Not bad at all though

I haven’t been in work since the 30th September so I don’t know what it’s like now but 3 of our 6 freezers were empty and the other 3 had low stock.
Sweets and chocolate were quite low too but plenty of cake biscuits and crisps.
Our toy section was about a third of what we normally have and even things like serviettes and balloons have been scarce
