30/12/2015 Down to Sainsburys, Across to Tescos and back home in the pigging rain

Wednesday, December 30th, 2015

Got sent out to replenish our meagre spud stocks 🙁

I left in the dry and walked down Hanger Hill to Sainsburys

Oh deep joy, they had sold out of spuds 🙁 and now it’s raining 🙁

Trudged along Queens Road to Tescos where said veg was available and I duly kicked the moths out of my pockets!

After paying up I walked up Pine Grove to Hanger Hill dripping as I went

I returned home, still in the rain, up Hanger Hill
