Marrison's has a sign up in the veg section today warning about shortages of some vegetables due to the weather in Spain.

Tescos had the same about lettuce. You were allowed a certain number per person or something. Except they were all sold out.

There was hardly any lettuce in Sainsbury's Local this morning. I'm so lucky I managed to get a bag, how would I cope if I hadn't? <sarcasm> :D
