On today’s 5pm briefing
Prof Whitty said rest of letters going out between today and end of week
Also said may be some who get letters and don’t want to be on there and can come off with dr,s permission ,it was answer to a press question at about 5.30pm Tuesday 7 april
I've had 2 & I've registered & stayed on the list in case anything changes, but I have managed to opt out of quite a few of what I consider extras in my case because my children are doing shopping etc. for wide & me.
They do say though if conditions change you can go back in & get the help you need, hopefully I won't need to, but with the way this virus works you never know.
I'm past caring about a letter now and if anyone phones me about DNR I think I'll burst into tears, get hysterical and see how they cope with that!

I received a gov' text at 17:01 today, informing me that I'm high risk, and will be receiving a letter soon.... 🍻
Hang in there Jackie✨
Hello.
Paul had a text yesterday, promising a letter. What will happen now about supermarket delivery?Anything? I tried calling our supermarket but went round in circles again.
Never mind. Keep smiling!

Received an email from Sainsburys...... Saying that as I'm high risk, I should sign up for priority delivery...... Unfortunately, it doesn't 'recognise' my email address.....! The email address that they used to send me the email.... Am I going mad????
Just received a gov' text..... saying it's ok to have a window open, but don't go outside (garden?)..... Am I going mad????
Have I got cabin fever????
Yes. Think we are all going mad. I had same problem with Sainsburys, so no delivery after all!
I got a text at 17.30. Does that mean I have to stay in 12 weeks from now? What if I do go out? Still can’t get shopping delivered.
Pleased to see that I have eventually been recognised as high risk, and it wasn’t by my gp. Who I called lots of times.
I just felt a bit unloved and a bit of fraud having Cll the cancer that “is the best one to get” . Feeling happier now.
Hope everyone is managing to get through this very challenging time.
Stay well,Love

It’s not easy, is it??
Who would ever have thought we would be happy to receive a text saying “you are a high risk patient “???
What a mad world!

Sainsbury’s sent me an e-mail saying I was on the database but the nhs didn’t agree - then two days later they did agree - had a delivery from Iceland due to my husband being over state retirement age (77), ( thank you to the lady on here who suggested that) and have (hurrah) booked a Sainsbury’s delivery for next Monday. No letter yet.... keep careful and well everyone.
Sainsburys have eventually put me on their list. Asda and Tesco did it immediately.

I had my letter very early on, registered and I ticked the box saying I had some help as I felt guilty about receiving the government supplies box when all I wanted was to be able to place an order for on line delivery. I have found it impossible to get a delivery slot, Sainsbury's automated message simply says they are working with the Government's list and Tesco told me it was a first come first served when delivery slots pop up.
I live alone and find the whole shopping thing really frustrating. Thankfully my daughter has kept me supplied with perishables like milk and bread but she works in the NHS, has young children and is incredibly busy so I really do not like having her shop and drive to deliver items when the home delivery service I used before the shielding started has now disappeared when I need it most.
Sorry about the moan; must be cabin fever getting to me.
