For more than 25 years most of my Saturday evenings have involved travelling far and wide to comedy events and functions. However, last Saturday evening, between the hours of 8.00pm and 9.00pm, I found myself wandering the aisles of Lidl in Ammanford.
I have discovered the art of shopping when no-one else is around. It’s very therapeutic in these troubled times. I even managed to pick up a tent, an inflatable flamingo and a trombone from the bargain middle aisle.
It’s now clearly evident that I’m also getting fitter. This is all down to the new face mask rules. Every time I walk into a shop, I end up walking back to the car to get my mask.
I also never realised until now how wearing a mask improves my looks!
Before I left for my shopping trip, I noticed that we had more than enough toilet roll left over from the last lockdown. If anyone runs out, I can do a good deal.
On my way home I couldn’t help but think about all the people in the pubs I passed having to go home at 10pm. Isn’t it amazing how Boris knows Covid respects opening hours?
Stay safe, my friends.
