I used to work in Tesco and I can say that the fairly small amount of home deliveries we did (most was handled by a larger nearby shop, not sure why we occasionally did some) were done by the actual in store staff and would be picked up by the driver in one of the loading bays.
And the ASDA near me also takes thier stock out of the store, they have special staff going around filling trolleys and the delivery trucks load up in the back (they also do click and collect out of the back of the shop in the same way).
I met my newest great nephew (on my wife’s side) on zoom tonight. He’s just a week old and looking less like Winston Churchill than he did just after he was born. Theodore, to be called Teddy. My sister in law is understandably heart broken that she can’t get over to Leeds to see him.
Yippee! To my surprise my new iPhone SE 2020 DID indeed arrive just before midday yesterday delivered by DHL & I spent all day playing with it!😱😛😎😉 It must have been sailing across the water overnight as I got an email around 08:30 saying it was at Belfast & now out for delivery: that was impressively fast; REALLY did take 24 hours! 😛😎🙂 Transferring all of my stuff from the old phone was a doddle too: MUCH easier & quicker than I thought with Bluetooth; it’s my first transfer as this is only my 2nd iPhone as the iPhone 6 was my very first smartphone!🙄
A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉
PS: in a bit of a new toy, excited, novel phase! Bouncy emoji!😉
6.8 for me today. Knee now better, hooray. Work has slowed down for the time being, just busy rather than manic, even bigger hooray 🙂 . Ordered our bedroom carpets yesterday but they are going to take at least 5 weeks to come in and we can’t make appt for fitting until they arrive in store, so cold feet for Christmas.
Hope everyone is well and has a good day x
Good morning 🙂 4.8 for me today. New sensor, which Is reading on the low side, and annoyingly suggested I was hypo overnight Disappointing after the last sensor which was pretty much spot on. Ah well, it's still more useful than finger pricks! 🙂
Sure is - I have those slipper boots that keep my ankles warm, luverly. It’s getting up in the middle of the night that will bother me, wooden floors followed by a tiled bathroom floor brrrr!!
A very shocking and disappointing 9.0 for me can only blame the lack of sleep due to numerous nightmares and then the most painful cramp I've had in my life, sore to even walk now and feeling down already
5.6 this morning. Off to the office today and thinking of you all with your cramps, new family members, misreading sensors, cold floors etc and will wish you all well.
Including those who live in Spain and elsewhere as I don’t want to leave you out Michael!
Off to the gym for a little wake up exercise before work. Catch you later!

I hate it when they do that, it affects my time in target and makes me not respond to hypos as I know it is a lie! But as you say so much better than finger pricks. I have never had one which is higher than blood, have you?
