The last thing I would want now is a half decorated house. I'll happily live in my tired and dated surroundings for now.

Buy alcohol from the supermarkets and go paint the town red.

Two birds, one stone.

No need to thank me.

Alternatively fill your beer with blackboard chalk and make a million with drinkable paint. hic!

Although waiting times have understandably increased Homebase are still operating a home delivery service.

Screwfix.

You need to order on line, but you can then pick up from the store - well actually they take your order no. and bring your order outside to you.

You can't just go to a store and order now though.

I've collected paint from there this morning, surprised really as I thought they were only supposed to be selling 'essential items'.

A lot of maintenance trades are having to work. Someone needs to keep them supplied.

Yes, I know that, and I appreciate that they do sell some 'essential items'.
However, I'm not sure that my tin of matt emulsion can be classed as such !
