First day out ....Shopping

Today the project is to go to the warehouse and stock up again.  DDN came and fetched me and off we set. . . . masks and all!  Walter the Walker came with us as we didn't think I would be strong enough to walk round in one go.  I was so pleased he did as I used the seat part quite often.

On our way there we had to wait for a police van to go past, flashing lights etc. and noticed that there was quite a gathering of police cars and vans as we went past the large shopping centre at the Swan Island.  Thank goodness DDN was not shopping there today!!

When we arrived the queue was back to the underground car park - a long way believe me.  They wouldn't let us in so I sat on the walker and DDN went to join the queue . . . . way back out of sight.  Eventually I was called forward and then . . .  someone had to go to fetch DDN so that we could be let in next! 

Inside there was plenty of room to walk round without 'touching' anyone so we managed to get the trolley filled and to the checkouts quite quickly. . . .  The walker was invaluable as I sat quite often while DDN fetched what I wanted. 
At the checkouts we still had to wait so I sat on the walker again . . . .
We came out into blazing sunshine which was a shock as it was quite cool and overcast when we arrived.  We drove back home quite easily, no police rushing about and, after unloading the car, had fish & chips for lunch.  Another good day but I am certainly tired out so time to sit and sew!!   Tomorrow I must sort out the 'blue' garden's plants, the Clematis really need to be planted so that we can appreciate their blooms.
