That's probably another reason why I alarmed up.
It's all above board, just left over stock, no state secret.
That's why I thought of trading standards until the issue with stock pilers and preppers came up.

As for my lovely tin lady, no problem there, she knows me of old (but still doesn't know I'm a prepper). I didn't enlighten her either. For once, ignorance is bliss I'm thinking.

As for the woman,
30-45 (I'm lousy at guessing a woman's age), mousey brown clean hair, pony tail, untanned good skin, pleasant face, dark eyes, no glasses, 5'3-5", averagely over weight.
Not smart but not untidy, jeans, moccasin type shoes,
No rings, no smell of cigarettes, Bluetooth earpiece but no phone on show, no handbag, right handed I'm guessing as her digital cheapy watch was on the left.
Accent nondescript. Could have come from anywhere.

Car, only one in the car park besides mine and the staffs vehicles (I go there a lot), blue Corsa, 56 reg, good condition, good tires. Reg plate noted on BOLO list in my car.
It pays to have a scratchpad and pen handy in your car.

Besides all that, being paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

very strange-maybe Inland Revenue...could have been a prepper.. but only a prepper would use the term prepper...until 3 years ago i'd never ever heard the term prepper....but what about all the references to "hoarders"?? my money is on some kind of "civil servant".( anybody makes a comment about your purchases in future you could say ("I'm buying it for the foodbank")-in this case the foodbank is your own larder or wherever you keep your stores)
