All the non essential cr#p that's plastic and rots in the garden!

As long as the Beer doesn't run out.

So long as it's just Chinese "essentials" then long may it continue! Had quite enough from their offerings recently (C19).

I’d say barbie fodder will be essential especially if it is scorchio.

Might put a curb on those bellends that go camping and leave everything at their arse if the cheap gear isn’t available to buy in the first place.

I can see further supply issues looming.

Have already bought netwrap and silage wrap for this season.

As long as there’s bit of beef lamb bread and milk
Plus beer we will manage I think.

I rang up to hire a tractor and had no issue.......rang Tesco to hire a patio chair and they laughed at me

 

[Werzle]

Good job if there is a shortage of all the cr#p we can do without.

Only netwrap looking at weather

clipping the hogs made me sad all the wool shipped doff to china for pennies only to be made into suits and sold back at xxxxxx the price, so sad someone really needs to get there act together. the powers at be dont see it as a long-term issue just a supply chain issue and will happy buy from china forever. new stock bocks has been put back another 6 months been on order since January, if i were a contractor this summer id be crapping it for a breakdown
