Shops Open - Experiences

Nope, I don’t need anything that badly .
At some point we need to check out kitchen showrooms to narrow down what we both like but not so desperate it needs to be today.

We had long queues outside charity shops!

Went to a local independent clothes shop this morning and it was lovely to be out and wasn't busy...they said they had a steady stream all day. Met a friend there and then went for a coffee next door on a bar terrace...what a day.

I’m not going anywhere, my son has the African variant at work and has to be tested. This isn’t over yet and I’ll give it a few weeks to see if cases start rising, I might do a pub garden if the weather improves but won’t be going to packed shops just yet!

Just been to currys to get a washing machine, we waited about 5 mins to get in as it was only 55 people inside and choosing appliances isn't a quick job.
Ginos restaurant had a few tables with people on ,and a few pubs had people outside. But it was reasonably quiet here, no mad crowds

It baffles me why all these people need to go to the shops

That seems a little judgemental. I didn't need to go to the shop or for a coffee this morning but I did need to have some company for a couple of hours other than my kids and the 4 walls of the house and I wanted to support local businesses who have not been able to trade as usual for months.

Popped into hobbycraft in Basingstoke for supplies for dd art project. Very pleasant, not busy lots of space.
