Today's trip to the little Tesco.

I checked the weather app before I went out to the shop, and it said 17°, 0% chance of rain! The high was 26° and the low was 13°. I checked what it was in Cardiff, and their high was 27° so it's potentially hotter in Cardiff today! My Mum told me to get some different cakes that they hadn't had before, but I was wondering if that was possible. Ofcause I didn't need to wear a coat, and when I went outside there wasn't a cloud in the sky. It was a bit breezy though, so it wasn't too bad. When I got to the shop a little old lady came up to me and said, "Hello, are you still doing your art?" I said, "Yes!" She said she'd love to see some of them. She told me she lives across the road from me. I told her I'd recently been on an art course at Wall Village Hall and if I'd have known I'd have invited her to the exhibition. I told her I was going next year again with a friend, and if she reminds me I'll invite her to next years exhibition. She said, "If I'm still around!" I asked her what number she lives at and she said No.2. And I said, "Oh, the large house on the corner? We wanted that house but my step-dad said it was too much for the mortgage!" She said, "Oh, that must have been a long time ago," she said, "My husband died ten years ago now, and we'd been living here quite a while." I said, " Yes, well we moved into our house in 1997." I asked her if she had a little dog, I remember seeing her around with a little dog, and she said he died last October. He was a border terrier. And I said, ooh. And she said so now she's all alone. And I said Aah. So then I said, "Are you coming to Tesco?" and she said "Yes". So we went in. We both got our baskets and the lady said she'd only come in for a couple of things. So she went to get her stuff, and I went to get mine. I got 2 TV magazines as usual, and a bounty bar for my step-dad. Then I got myself an areo. Then I went to get some strawberries, and the little old lady was there getting some plums. When I picked up the strawberries, the little old lady (I forget what she said her name was.) said that the strawberries were very tasty. The little old lady went off to get some milk, and I got some Alpen with no added sugar for my Mum. When I came to the cakes, I looked for something different and saw some cream slices. They are only small, so I got those. Then I got myself a purple notebook. After that I went and got 2 bottles of milk and then I went to pay. The little old lady was at the till paying for her two items and she turned round and waved at me before she went. There was one gentleman in front of me and then it was my turn to pay. It came to just over £15. After I'd payed I set off for home. It was a bit hotter on the way home because there wasn't as much breeze. When I got in I gave my Mum her change and her Tesco club card. I can't remember if I gave her her list back, so I'll go and check later, and when I do I'll go and fetch my electric fan again because I'm cooking here! I also told my Mum about seeing the little old lady from No.2. I asked her if she knew what her name is but she can't remember either, even though she told her her name when she helped my Mum back home once when she looked a bit exhausted! Anyway, I unpacked the groceries and put them away, and now I'm watching Homes Under the Hammer again. What are you getting up to? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.
