Pudding It Rice If We Could Hold’er
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Hammersmith and Fulham.
- Tuesday, 27th of October 2020
I signed up to do shopping for the lovely Ms D, The third time that she’ll have a visit from me, I gave her a call, To get the list of all, The things that she’d want from Sainsbury’s.
Light fading, I entered face mask over nose, Down the aisles and the shopping rows, Bananas, need eight, White bread that’s in date, And a dozen fine eggs that I’d chose.
Then Cadbury’s hot chocolate in a purple tin, Mild cheddar and two cans of rice pudding went in, Went to the till, But we weren’t done still, As I had to pay with my chip and pin.
Final purchase of cigarettes, 20 Superking Blue, Luckily at the kiosk there wasn’t a queue, Back outside it’s now dark, Cycled past Chiswick Park, To Shepherd’s Bush, off I went down the Avenue.
I arrived at her house, said hello to the cat, Who was sat just outside upon the doormat, I rang on the bell, Wished Ms D well, Left her shopping, got a thanks, and that was that.
