Mr M was in need of a few essentials from Tesco. Since I had planned two shopping trips I opted for a two-wheeled outing and managed to get this first mission done way too quickly. Tesco continue to do a wonderful job at crowd management, and M&S somehow suffers the biggest queues still (probably because it's facing the high street) so this makes Tesco, deeply embedded in Ealing Broadway shopping centre, much more tranquil and easier to navigate. I got all items in the bag, including some lovely choc and ice cream. Why do we not see ice cream on people's lists more often?! It's an essential, no? After I dropped the shopping off at Mr M's I made my way to Hanwell for mission number 2.
