The ever friendly Mr W recited an interesting and eclectic list of items that he needed for today's shop - 3 pints of soya milk, 1 pack of smoked salmon, 2 large bottles of water, 8 cans of diet coke, 2 bottles of fairy antibacterial washing up liquid and a tin of fly/wasp killer.

Fortunately his local Sainsbury's is only a short walk away, so it proved to be a quick shopping trip with all items found, but I was very glad I had the backpack with me to spread the liquid load, and am hoping that the next time his list is full of onions and tomatoes again...
