The idea was to take my trusty pull along shopper, get the bus to the foodbank, pickup Mrs P’s order and walk the groceries round to her. The tube strike seemed to have had a knock on effect on the buses so there was little more walking than planned but it was a lovely day and I arrived in plenty of time.

The food wasn’t pre packed so I called Mrs P to find out what she’d like and picked and packed her items, which just about fit in my shopper. On the way out I was offered some flowers for her and managed to stash a bunch in the back pouch.

Mrs P was a short walk away and luckily a Nephews of hers had come to visit so unpacked for her and I was soon off on my walk back.

Mrs P was very happy with her groceries and flowers.
