Steve Allen's Little Bit Extra.

Morning everybody, welcome along to your free podcast for today, Monday the 15th of June.

Well, after the weekend we've had, and today, I mean, I've never known so many things happen.

Do you know what, I'll tell you, if I wrote a diary, nobody'd ever believe it.

Today we went into lockdown.

Today, we weren't allowed to go out shopping. And then of course

having been through that bit now they go the shops are opening and of course the papers who've got

absolutely diddley squat to write about go let's show you how shops work. You stand there, you have

your card in your hand because you probably won't be paying cash and you have to follow the arrows.

Okay, can you manage that? I do hope so because they patronise you like there's no tomorrow.

And then you walk round and you can try shoes on but then they have to isolate them for God knows how many weeks.

And selfridges, I think, are opening the front doors.

All the other doors are exit only.

I mean, so there's going to be, I can guarantee by tomorrow morning,

sure as God made little apples and everything else,

there's going to be a queue because the isolation bits, the two metres,

go around the, it's like a mile. And so there's all these people going

to be queuing up for selfridges and you think, I'm sorry, what is it that you've not managed

to buy Puppets over the past 12 weeks that you're so desperate to go and buy in the shops?

You know, the papers are going, come on, get out there and spend, spend, spend. We've been

spending. Have you heard of shopping, you know, courtesy of your computer?
