Re: Anyone ventured out to the supermarket yet?


Anne! - You've got a Santa mooning on your avatar!!!

OH went to Tesco with the intention of getting our chook yesterday, drove around the car park twice - could find no parking spaces and gave up! Went to our local farm butcher's shop and came home with a lovely fresh free-range one instead. We were going to cook a gammon, but decided that it would be a waste, so he also got some home cured ham slices for the cold meat on Boxing Day.

Had a couple of unexpected visitors this morning, so sat with them chatting and having tea and then I went to our farm shop just for the fresh veg. They had an elderly gent directing the parking - the shop was full but easy, I got my carrots and broccoli (sorry Eileen!) some garlic and onions and was home within half an hour.

Now it's extreme cleaning (whilst still in the throws of left over extreme washing!) and popping around to take some pressies to a friend mid afternoon.

All in all a bit relaxed really .....................

We went to asda at 6am ready for when they opened. It was great. A few people had the same idea, but wasn't too busy.
Shelves weren't very full though said they'd had trouble with a delivery not turning up! There wasn't a sliced loaf in the store So we had to make do with crusty bread

Got everything now & all sorted!
