Veg box arrived yesterday

total cost twelve English pounds, and would have cost me double that if I'd bought in supermarket. (easily). Important thing is to keep using them when all this is over. We've pretty much dropped big supermarkets since we moved up here - have great local butchers, farm shops and a co-op. But I've never been more grateful to local suppliers than I am right now.
