Our Tesco order arrived on time yesterday afternoon, no missing or substituted items, very pleased. That's us done, anything I've forgotten will stay that way lol

WM we're very lucky here, both Sainsburys and Tesco are excellent with their deliveries. I must admit I was concerned at the beginning of the first lockdown, I've always preferred to pick my own fresh food, but I I can honestly say I don't miss supermarket shopping at all. I doubt very much we will go back to it. I do miss my weekly jaunt to M&S though, thank goodness they've started to deliver, but we will definitely resume out weekly trips there when we can, if only to treat ourselves to coffee and a toasted sandwich :D
