Everything arrived in our Tesco order yesterday. Re gas bills best to fix utility prices before too late imho, electricity also affected as a large proportion is generated from gas fired power stations.

Gas bills 'will rise by £170 a year https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9747613/Gas-bills-rise-170-year-new-Government-plans-cut-carbon-emissions.html Pay rise for Aldi lorry drivers amid shortage With inflation its not enough £, should be talking for £20 an hour for lorry drivers, horrible away from your home/family job.. Aldi has increased its wages for lorry drivers amid a chronic shortage of drivers across the industry. The supermarket chain confirmed the rise following similar incentives by grocers to attract HGV drivers. The lack of drivers has caused disruption and delays in various supply chains, which has led to product shortages in some industries. Tesco has offered drivers a £1,000 joining bonus for candidates who join before 30 September. Morrisons has said it is setting up schemes to train staff to become lorry drivers. Aldi did not add further information on its pay rise for lorry drivers, but its careers website states wages are between £14.15 and £15.34 per hour for day shifts, and £16.98 and £18.41 per hour for night shifts. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-58047483 Video Why Truck Drivers are Leaving The Industry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hSake-OUXU

Lockdown in September to save Christmas. That'll be the story. 'Professor Lockdown' says Britain might have to shut down again in months - but urges the nation to be 'patient' and wait to see if cases start falling by September or stay high in a 'worst-case scenario' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9799559/Furious-Covid-row-eve-Freedom-Day-Boris-accused-Boris-letting-rip.html

Stay home in the garden cider and cheese far far cheaper.pubs will be extinct in 20 yrs.

[ste1984] 15/7/2021 08:24

It sounds like the Covid passport and other restrictions and guidelines are being pushed on to businesses quite hard, despite the 19th being the “lift the lockdown day”. Therefore, pubs will still struggle to get the numbers up as it won’t be a last minute surge of everyone back to the pub, there is still some slow uptake on the vaccines meaning people won’t have Covid passports, so I still see an ongoing, higher than usual need for supermarkets for their booze and other items. Good for Tesco’s, good for us. I am guessing the bid takeover news has all gone quiet now from the US?

[bountyhunter] 11/7/2021 12:09

I agree the price of beer, cider, and wine at supermarkets doesn't help pubs who have had it very tough throughout the pandemic and I certainly don't mind paying the usual pub prices for a well kept pint of real ale, especially as you just can't get that elsewhere.
