My second mission brought me to Sydenham Hill to do a mission for Miss A. She currently has her foot in a cast and a energetic son making it difficult for her to do any shopping at all. The closest Sainsbury's was 2.6 km away which I was warned about but nobody mentioned about the notrious hilly roads of Crystal Palace Park. So good job I was on my bike and had previous experience from another similar shop, so I knew what I had to do. It was a relatively big shop as the voucher was £30 worth, but I got it all including the Ham and Cheese flavoured pizza which I had to clarify because all I could find was Ham and Pineapple which we know is bit like Marmite that you either love it or hate it . I had purchased two strong shopping to strap on to my backpack with also contained other shopping items in that and made my way DOWN hill to Miss A. It was a long mission but I was happy to help out Miss A as she was clearly not having a great time not being able to walk at the moment.
