Keeping Up Appearances.

Shopping for Mr A was my last mission of 2020 and so there was a neat symmetry to knocking on his door at lunchtime today to kick off missioning in this new year. It wasn't quite as quiet around Holborn compared to the ghost town of New Year's Eve, but fortunately his local Sainsburys seemed to have scared most people away which made filling the basket a fairly relaxing exercise.

Impressively, alongside the usual bread, milk, mashed potato and three bananas, Mr A asked this week for some high shine brown shoe polish...which either means he's going to a fancy dress party, planning a nighttime commando raid or is keen to maintain his high sartorial standards in spite of the lockdown, for which he should be highly commended.
