Tin-tastic!

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Southwark.

Ms. A needed a Saturday morning shop. I ran from my home thinking it would take 25 minutes, but I forgot I was running downhill and slashed 10 minutes off... Also, Google over-estimates.

Her son opened the door and I apologised for being super early, but not to worry she was prepared and had the list. Lots of tinned soup on the list! Clearly, she needed me for the heavier items.

I went to Morrisons to do all her shopping as she gave me cash, it came up to £31. The only thing I didn't get as I couldn't read her hand writing was a tin of polish. Yet, not too worry she was happy.
