I helped with Ms F's shopping ๐Ÿ› today. I arrived at around 6 pm at the door but the buzzer downstairs didn't seem to work (at least there was no sound when I pressed the button). I called Ms F on her mobile ๐Ÿคณ๐Ÿ“ž and she let me in.

Ms F had the shopping list prepared upfront and she walked me through it carefully indicating which of the items are supposed to be purchased to make sure we'll use all the Waitrose vouchers ๐Ÿ›’๐Ÿคธโ€โ™‚๏ธ.

After asking for a battered haddock ๐ŸŽฃ at the fish counter the lady serving the products asked if this is for Ms F - it seems it's a well known order from her! She asked me to say "Hi" to Ms F when I get back.

I was able to purchase all products from the list (even a bottle of Mr F's favourite rose wine) except of round beans ๐Ÿซ˜ which were not in stock.

I came back with trhe shopping after around 45 mins and - as always - was struggling a little bit with fitting in with everything into the tiny lift in Mr's block of flats.

Mr F was really grateful and pretty cheerful when I got back with the shopping. She said she needed a bit of an uplift as someone from her family recently passed away.
