Mission

A dose of medicine with a side of supplementary refreshments

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

Today was repeat of a mission I did a fortnight ago, but with a slightly heavy twist. It was a very quick trip to the curiously named Qrystal Pharmacy in Borough and then having confirmed who I was, I was able to pick up Ms J's prescription.

A quick discussion amongst the chemists resulted in me also being gifted over 10KG of supplement drinks to keep Ms J well stocked. Fortunately she lives in close proximity to the pharmacy and it only took slightly longer than previously to wander over to hers and was soon at her flat.

She was again most appreciative, especially as I'd lugged the drinks to her as well and after a customary check to ensure all was as expected we wished each other well.

I was back at my desk in just under an hour, so a most worthwhile use of my lunch break.

Kudos Leo carrying all that load - and I'd wondered about the Pharmacy name too (even Googled it to check)!
