OH MY ACHING BACK

I miss my car!!!!!!  Wolfgang and I went grocery shopping today at the only large store in town, Morrisons.  Just a brief 2km jog along the busiest, most narrow street with construction chaos on one side and motorcycles and trucks whizzing by on the other.  With construction dust challenging our nostrils and a faint smell of sewage in the air we made our way thru the car park and plunged into the Saturday morning turmoil.

The store itself is large, just like any other grocery chain, with fresh cut flowers at the entrance.  Everything and everyone is British.  Don't get me wrong, this is a good thing, it's just the steep prices were shocking.  One dozen eggs £ 2.50  and oh we won't even talk about the beer prices.

Managing to fill our cart with the essentials, we checked out at a meagre £65 and headed for the nearest coffee shop to fortify our bodies.  Wolfgang ordered a FULL English breakfast consisting of 2 fried eggs, 2 sausages, 2 large pieces of bacon, backed beans, french fries and a piece of toast.  So, for under £10 we both had a good brunch.

With our granny cart filled to the brim and the backpack fully loaded we set off for the jaunt back to the marina.  I miss my car!!!!!!
