Camden

Mission

The days just blur together...

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Camden.

A welcome return visit to help unsuspecting Guardian newspaper article star Mr A and as always he was well prepared - neatly written list, money and two recycling bags in my hands, I was soon making the familiar walk to his local Sainsbury's. Mr A was concerned that we might break the budget, but was also keen to get a copy of today's Guardian.

Amazingly, in spite of the basket being full to overflowing, the shop was just 10p over limit, and when I returned Mr A sounded slightly surprised but very pleased that I'd got him today's newspaper..."Ah" he said, "I was thinking it was Sunday, but of course it's still Saturday isn't it?".

We agreed that the days do seem to merge into one at the moment , and I left him happily to enjoy the sunny weekend "from the other side of the kitchen window" and read his paper.
