I just made an emergency run for sprinkles, and the shops are a bit chaotic. Carpark gridlock and people swarming everywhere, I almost ran over an old woman crossing the road. Then I had one of those illuminating moments where I realised the "old woman" was probably around my age 🤣

I did at least secure a packet of sprinkles (the last one on the shelf).

Yeah, we went yesterday and shouldn’t need to leave the house for the next week. Too many people and the musak does my head in.
