One erroneous digit in the postcode on the GoodGym confirmation email for the mission meant I arrived 3 miles from the actual location 🤷‍♀️. Lucky it was a nice sunny day for a longer run/walk... and cue the heavy rain 🤣. I arrived a little wet at Mrs M’s and had to break the news to her that I was on foot so doing her shopping at Sainsbury’s, which was 3 miles away, would not be feasible today. I took her shopping list down to the local Lidl and did the best I could to fulfil her shopping whilst still respecting her reluctance to buy different brands of food. All in all she seemed happy with the choices I’d made.
