Time for a trip to the main store. Lots of fresh Veggies and Meat were included in the weekly shopping request for Mrs J. I think a week's worth of Scampi Fries has well and truly put 'meat and 2 veg' back to the top of the menu!! We were also able to source plenty of instant pasta pots, which have been a bit of a struggle to find in local shops lately.

In demand were some treats for her little doggie too, specifically something with some resistance, to keep her little dog busy for a while so Mrs J could get on with some household jobs. When I arrived and helped to unpack some of the items, we offered some of the scooby snacks to her little dog, and my goodness, the tail wags that followed could have powered a small village!! I guess that's a thumbs up in dog language!

In addition to the shopping, when checking the post, Mrs J now has her vaccination letter - which was a big relief for her!

As ever, it was nice to have a catch-up with Mrs. J, and it was particularly lovely to hear stories of her past, as it was her eldest daughter's birthday (I can't believe she's nearly 50 - was the take-home message of the day!)
