Hello

I did think about 2 baskets but because I could only carry one, I thought I would be a bit selfish lol

It was the one pack of toilet roll, one loaf of bread, and a bag of spuds filling up the first one that made me realise Mrs B would need a second basket for the biscuits, Vienetta, Chocoalte, Pork Pies and Midget Gems :-D

And if she packs the second basket correctly, she can even get herslef a bunch of flowers for being an amazing wife ;-)

I brought a huge one home to share with my wife the other week when I was going for a heart scan with radio active dye and told to eat something fatty after the injection .

Do you live in Scotland ?

When I lived there I used to have one every Saturday at a football match and at other times when out for a pint. When Safeway supermarkets were in business they had good Scottish ones that we could get in England. I've not looked at other supermarkets in recent years as I'm on a better diet now:-)

I was about to say - but I need the trolley to lean on if an angina or shortness of breath attack hits - and then I remembered I'm not meant to be out and about now any road.

Sad days when the 'Once this virus is over' bucket list includes a long browse at the supermarket!
