This week’s shopping for the lovely Ms Y was similar to last week - failing again to get rid of her loose change in the self service till at the Co-op and again adding to it; having a long chat when I got back to her flat - it feels in some ways that this is as important as the shopping. The only difference was that I forgot to pick up her battered bag for life and had to use my reusable Crystal Palace bag in Millwall territory. I got away with it though!

I also got to run in parks with autumn colours on the way there and back - Forster Memorial Park pictured .
