Another week, another run to my not-so-local Tesco to enjoy a task in the glorious air conditioning. It was just Richard and I there with Goodgym, but there were quite a few other volunteers as well, so we got through the snake of waiting carts (trolleys?) in just half an hour.

Last week, I met my match in a shopping list I've come to affectionately know as Meat Man. His list was full of mysterious items that this poor, Canadian vegetarian had never heard of before: Ginsters, chipolata sausages, pork pies, yum yums? In the end, I did manage with a little help from a fellow Goodgymer (shout-out to Mridula!). When I picked up Meat Man's list again this week, I flew through the aisles, getting a taste of that sweet, sweet redemption.

Thanks to Food 2 U for another great mission. Hopefully Meat Man and I will meet again next week!
