Never too cold for shorts!

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.

My first mission of a chilly Friday was to get some food for Mr A. After getting his shopping list, I had a short run down to Sainsbury's and quickly found all the things....except from the cheese and tomato pizza. All possible varieties of pizza could be found, other than a good old cheese and tomato. A friendly member of staff came to my assistance and I found the missing pizza (I'm in agreement with Mr A , don't overcomplicate pizzas with too many toppings).

The shopping was a bit too heavy to run with so I walked back to Mr A's place. It was a bitterly cold day and I got some strange looks walking down the road in my shorts. Mr A was as happy as always to see me arrive with his shopping.
