Perhaps they were worried there might be another lock down and wanted to panic buy some toilet rolls and pasta ;)

I think the police comment that said an investigation was ongoing but initial CCTV inquiries showed a "poor standard of driving" in the car park qualifies for understatement of the day.

Regarding the first line of your comment, the driver has clearly never read Honest John’s column and heeded the advice on left-foot braking.

We did the L foot braking extensively a while back and most auto drivers on here...including me...are against it.

Maybe a cat was the mastermind in charge of the gang.

The cat food counter was a red herring. They were after the fish. ;-)
