With tighter restrictions in full-flow, a couple of the young kids in a family nearby were taken by various winter-related ailments (non-COVID) and a shop run was required to keep the family sustained for the week and weekend. This included the basics of food and nappies but also a few treats for when the kids were feeling better. The decorated pumpkins were on full display too after their Halloween exploits (see previous self-logged task). They are feeling better now thankfully.

There was also a prescription run for an elderly lady who was unfortunately feeling a bit under the weather (again, non-COVID) but is hoping to be on the mend very soon.
