As always Mrs S included some unusual items on her dictated list this week, the most notable being mulberries, which apparently are in season. With money, Waitrose card and bag in hand I set off for what I hoped would be successful gathering, but sadly the world's politest supermarket let me down on the mulberries, which were not available in store - however I was able to secure everything else, and Mrs S was delighted as ever when I emptied the bag on the kitchen table.
