Our first shop

It sounded like a good idea at the time. We thought we'd head down to the supermarket and stock up our larders. A bit of leaderhsip in the group got us sorted with sharing supplies of cleaning products as an economy of scale and so we were left to get stuff for ourselves. Now most people who have shopped with me will know I'm an in and out, no messing about sort of shopper. John on the other hand got truly engaged in the process. It was fascintating watching him shop (from where I was standing outside the shop for 15 minutes before going off for a coffee and a muffin and then coming back and watching some more :-) ). So as a result we arrived at the car with a truck load of bags and only one boot. We got it all in but I think Colleen and Damian's grapes suffered as a consequence. The Colleen was called to work, Brian turned up with some books and so we had this hilarious dance aroudn the lift and down the corridor as one carrefour bag looks like every other. We had plans to go to a function later int he evening unfortunately John had a small prang and so we called halas and are having a quiet one.
