Second good deed of the day was a mission to help Mr A with a grocery shop.

I rang him the day before to make sure I had the list ready, which turned out to be a good idea as not everything was in one shop so had to do a hop around between Sainsburys and Tesco's to grab everything. There was also a bizarre toothpaste shortage so I chucked a new one of my own in instead. After I'd squeezed everything into a rucsac I cycled the way there which was quite nice to get a bit of exercise into the lunch break.

Took me quite a while to find Mr A's place, but got by with a little help from some friendly neighbourhood people and he was very grateful.
