For the second time today, I headed for Asda. This time to do an essential shop for Mr J. Usually, I cycle, but as there was still quite lot of ice about, I chose to go on foot.

Running the couple of miles to Mr J's soon warmed me up. There were a few new items added to the list, but I managed to get around reasonably quickly, and found everything.

The walk back up to Mr J's was a slow, slog uphill, carrying and pulling the three bags of shopping, but I pushed on.

Mr J was pleased to have his cupboards restored, and we chatted about how he was managing.

Still receiving his model parts, but not being in the right frame of mind to complete them, he now has about 8 boxes waiting for his attention.

His latest model, the Ghostbusters Ecto-1, was emblazoned on his t-shirt today...a free gift with every model.
