READ ALL ABOUT IT! Weekly shop done for elderly lady in Hammersmith
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Hammersmith and Fulham.
- Thursday, 2nd of April 2020
Off to Hammersmith for this mission, to help an elderly lady who needed some shopping done whilst self-isolating. A lady after my own heart, with Fox's Golden Crunch and Captain Morgan's on the list ;)
Having seen the Tesco advert about safe shopping, I headed to the Superstore and... RESULT! Only a 10 minute queue and spacious store to roam around to find Ms D's bounty. I managed to grab the last copy of the Daily Express, Radio Times and Hello Mag to keep Ms D up to date with her TV shows and news! Here there was milk, bread, rice and the other items Ms D needed which resulted in a full shop! Only thing missing was the two bunches of daffodils, so I slipped in some lovely orange roses and daffodil bulbs to put a smile on Ms D's face :)
For the second result of the day, this Tesco's had an in-store pharmacy so I was able to get Ms D the cream she needed as well. Happy blooming days.
Back I went with 4 large bags of shopping... avoiding the other walkers as best possible! Ms D was happy to see the biscuits and started to tell me about a new ITV sitcom sharing my name - Kate and Koji. I know what i'll be watching tonight with my cup of tea and biccies!
