Are we going to have enough food this weekend? We managed to get a click and collect from Sainsburys, Clare is going to get it today, but there's lots missing:

You ordered: Linda McCartney Quarter Pounder Burger x2 227g → We're delivering: Sainsbury's Vegetable Quarter Pounders 454g

You ordered: Linda McCartney Vegetarian Sausages x6 270g → No alternative chosen at your request

Some of those just have to be returned including my burgers, now what am I going to eat this weekend? No Linda McCartney sausages and no bean salad too, that is basically my entire planned protein intake until we next go shopping.

Clare and I both did Joe Wicks workout this morning, the boys have taken a day off. We've also finally let them start their spring holiday so no school work today. They're watching Paddington at the moment, still in their pyjamas.

I'm going to keep track of all my reading while I'm furloughed here. I'm not really achieving much else, I'm not learning anything, I'm not even getting the DIY or gardening done.

author book thoughts
Ian Rankin Westwind1 Dated thriller, shame.
Ian Rankin Doors Open1 Really good art based crime caper in Edinburgh, but with no Rebus.
Suzanne Collins The Hunger Games1 Borrowed from the children, enjoying so far. Why not read gentle dystopian fiction during an actual dystopian nightmare.

I think it's too early in the day for coronavirus updates, but I have 65077 cases and 7978 deaths here.
