I think Moby that you are probably more likely to be seriously injured in a RTA either going to or coming from said Waitrose that contracting Covid-19 from one of their staff.

There's no value in an encounter that you may never see again :(
The real value would surely be in the happy memory :angel:
The Memory of how you have butchered some of my posts will never fade :thumbdown: :) ... happy memories are for the past, not the future, not yet I hope…so long live Mob I say :thumbup:

I’ll be needing a statistical breakdown from John :) before I believe that David :lol: Oh! and I'll need one before and after the Christmas Spike. :wave:

We used Waitrose Click & Collect at Ilkley. Order was fine. Money taken from card as expected. We were given a time slot but (as we were travelling a distance) we arrived about 45 mins before hand. I parked the car and wandered across to where the click and collect was. I spoke to a member of staff and they said just to drive across to one of the bays and open the boot. I gave my name and the scheduled collection time. The shopping was brought out bagged (I think) and in In a trolley. The trolley was left adjacent to the boot opening and the member of staff withdrew. I emptied the trolley and put the trolley back. There was a table with hand sanitiser near by.

That is exactly what I was waiting to hear, many thanks ' Ranchi ' :thumbup:

Great to discover first hand that there is no need for ID or credit cards etc, I had an email from Waitrose waiting for me this morning but sadly their Customer Services haven't got a clue how their own system is supposed to work.

In truth I am far more concerned about the potentially infected Grockles than their locally based staff but I will promise to observe the Green Cross Code and look both ways :angel:

I took my driving licence (old fashioned type & had my bus pass but neither were required) I may have been asked my phone number but can’t remember. It was Otley not Ilkley store, we are not from that area & I’m always confusing those two. Certainly no close contact. All very well organised.

I am adding a few Favourites ( things we cannot get in Sainsbugs ) as we speak, our choice is determined by the lack of close proximity car parking so out of many there is only a small one to choose from :roll:

Well, have just booked a Waitrose ' Click 'n' Collect ' slot for next Monday so there's plenty of time to check out one's protective clothing ...

ps ... unbelievably I could have also booked a ' delivery slot ' for the 27th July, such a pity to have missed it :lol:

It, along with the visit of number 1 son at the weekend, represents our first real steps back into some sort of normality. I know it sounds absolutely ridiculous but we are really looking forward to our next ' C & C ' :thumbup: :lol:

I know exactly what you mean. I enjoy ordering online and the visit to the 'van' on Tuesday morning. One of the highlights of the week! :lol:
