If you're finding it hard to find essential items like toilet rolls
here's an alternative.
1. Fix a hook to your toilet wall.
2 Obtain a copy of the Daily Mail. (Don't worry, you don't have to
read it).
3. Put carefully crafted strips of Daily Mail onto the hook.
4. Have a good ****.
5. Use as many strips of Daily Mail as necessary. If you can find a
strip with the face of Boris Johnson printed on it than so much the
better.
6. Rejoice in the fact that the Daily Mail has been put to good use.



Unfortunately the way to counter panic buying is to panic buy, making it pretty much an unsolvable problem. Went round 6 supermarkets and still didn't get all the essentials. Pity elderly folks in villages who simply don't have the strength to do that.
