Badger Mar 2020 4:02pm, 25 Mar 2020 12,056 posts	0 Badger dilbert.com I'm going with toast instead of cereal for breakfast, I have some bread flour but I can't bake my own milk. Also can't get a delivery slot so still going to shops.
Dr PhFleecyD Mar 2020 4:28pm, 25 Mar 2020 48,991 posts	0 Dr PhFleecyD Our milk is still coming and I get bread once a week too. Veg box still coming as well. I’ve actually got too much milk as I’m too scared to cancel a delivery! Can’t add anything new to the deliveries either but at least it means I can wait a lonnnnng time to go to the supermarket. I’ll offer my neighbours some of my milk.

Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-)

And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.
