Mop it like it's hot

Who knew finding a mop would be so tricky?!

Mr A needed some help getting some food and essential items in due to self isolating, one of which was a mop. After getting most of the food items requested, the one item that alluded me was that mop, a top priority I'd been informed!

Using my one allocated form of outdoor exercise a day, thanks Boris, I set off on a running mission. How far would I need to go before a mop was in my possession? The answer was 3.5 miles! I'd nearly given up hope and was on route back when there it was in the shop window. I hope I amused passers by as I ran the last mile back home from the shop with mop in hand. As it turns out it's a great length for keeping people away at a safe social distance...

Just a quick stop back home to wash my hands and to collect all the other items I'd bought earlier before dropping everything safely outside Mr A's door. With loo roll still proving to be Britain's hottest item this season I also popped in a roll from my personal collection...
