Lift and Swift

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

The broken lift strikes again! Mr A gets trapped on the first floor of his building. So close to the ground floor - yet so far, if you are in a wheelchair! Mr A needs food, so he sends a distress signal to the Order of Out to bring him supplies.

K responds to the call and runs to the rescue. On the way, she zigzags on a narrow pavement between weary commuters, expansive pushchairs and disoriented parents. Having collected Mr A's shopping list, she makes her way to Morrisons, where good things come in threes (apart from Tunisian dates - those come in twos for just £1). But the trinity is a theme for whole chickens and white bread. K needs to buy a plastic bag as Mr A hasn't got any shopping bags ready, and the groceries are high in volume and weight. On the way out, K purchases a giffgaff voucher for Mr A.

Mr A is so happy with the delivery that he wants to give K the change, but Order of Out forbids that. She runs away and is back in the order's HQ within an hour. Will Mr A's lift be fixed next week, or another member of Order of Out will be exposed to the temptation?
