Today's trip to the little Tesco again. (23/7/2024)

I've just been to the little Tesco again, and it's very hot out. Not as hot as on Friday, but hot enough. So I wore no mac or coat, even though Mum wanted me to wear a mac. I said, I'm not wearing a mac in this weather, thank you very much! I'm glad I didn't, I would've been roasting like a pig! We'd run out of bananas and I wanted one for my lunch, so Mum said just get a couple, and we'll get some more tomorrow. I set off, past the quiet, empty neighbouring house, and as I was approaching the neighbouring street that adjoins our street I saw our ex-neighbours car on a drive down the street. The house sticks out a bit before the road turns back on itself, then there's a bend that leads to a cul-de-sac I couldn't see from where I was standing. If their new house was round there I wouldn't have been able to see where they live. I went to the post box to post a TV competition for me and a birthday card Mum.is sending to Malcolm Beamond, a guy who used to come to our church, infact he was my first youth leader. After I'd posted the letters I continued on to the shop. I got the TV magazines as usual, then I got a bounty bar for Syd and some chocolate croissants for Mum and Syd. Then I treated myself to an aero again. A peppermint one this time. I had to get 5 of the bananas because the organic ones are bunched together with a sticky strip thing round them. Then I went to get some strawberries. I saw plenty with the 23rd on (which is today's date), but eventually I saw a few underneath with the 24th on, so I got one of those. After that I got some Alpen cereal with no added sugar for my Mum and 2 bottles of milk, and then I went to pay. It came to just over £15 so I gave the lady a £20. Then I set off for home. It started to get really hot when I was coming past the entrance to our ex-neighbours new street, and as I was coming up the end of our street. I couldn't wait to get home, but walking faster would just make me feel hotter. Eventually I got home. I gave Mum her change, club card and shopping list. Then I started to unpack the groceries and put them away. I told Mum about having to get more bananas, and about the dates on the strawberries. When I'd put everything away, I sat down to tell you all about it and watch the telly. Homes Under the Hammer is on again at the moment. What are you lot getting up to today? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.
