Olive Veronesi decided the best way to keep her supplies up was to get creative – and now, she’s gone viral on Facebook.

The photograph, taken through the window of her home, was uploaded to the Facebook page of a local TV station.

Much more importantly, several people have offered to get the beers in for Olive.
Others shared stories about how they are keeping drink cupboards well stocked for their elderly relatives.
As Olive is in her 90s, she falls into a group that is at higher risk from COVID-19.
