Ms D was surprised when I rang her doorbell this morning...which confused me too. After she'd let me in, I discovered she was a bit flustered as she thought I was coming tomorrow - I assured her it was today (as per usual), and that it was Thursday...at which point the penny dropped - she'd somehow lost a day this week as a result of a few visitors, and changes to the usual weekly routine.

With that resolved, she then dictated today's list, although we did have to refer back to last week's just to check there was nothing missing. Fortunately, after a quick diversion to Boots to pick up some magic hair potion, the shopping proved straightforward and when I returned Ms D seemed a little more her usual self.
