Panic buying starts again

No panic buying here, but heard about quques at Morrison's. Worried about panic stealing 10,000 people within a 30 minute walk from my veg & potato fields.

Still could not get any staff for transplanting, laying nets & hoeing etc.

In the spring when ploughing veg residue in. A very smart & wealthy looking couple flagged me down, "to thank me for the wonderful vegetables, I'd grown & would prefer if I did not plough the field because they were enjoying the small sprouts from the top of the plants & did not want to see any waste. Fecking thieves!!!!!

It's not all panic buying, it's people switching from eating out to having to eat from home, if there's another lock down. It just puts more pressure on the supermarkets that's all.
Not rocket science, just common sense.
