Chicken-sees-a-salad 🐔🥬

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

Today the chicken did see the salad - there was plenty of lettuce keeping it company on Mrs M's list! After a quick medication drop off at her door, Mrs M briefly chatted me through her shopping list as usual. She explained to me that she still doesn't have any water... after a slight mishap with her shop last week, she was running especially low today. I vowed to bring back as much water as her shopping trolley could carry, along with her other items. Tesco yielded almost everything - although the visit today was not as pleasant as usual, as a very grumpy employee who was manning the busy self checkouts complained that I was packing slowly when I was loading up the trolley... I didn't even stop to take a photo this week, so quite why he thought that I was being slow is a mystery - and what terrible customer service!! Once the trolley was loaded with 10 litres of water and most of Mrs M's food requests, I had to pop into Sainsbury's for some wholemeal pittas and and a couple of sweet potatoes to round off the list. Done and dusted!
