Patrick helped his older neighbour, "R", with his regular shop on a sunny afternoon

Straight from an earlier gardening mission, Patrick met R at his home, confirmed the latest shopping list and safely picked up the carrier bags and cash.

It was a quick dash to the familiar and busy supermarket and all items were in stock - but just, as there was only one pack of frozen onions. So, thankfully no random substitutions were required!

Back within an hour, three full bags, receipt and more than five pounds change.

R was really grateful for the help and the thick pork chops on special offer.

Double deed done and then a run home via a stop for cold coffee 🧊 ☕
