Ivy 1


It turns out that my aunt (see yesterday) will be 87later this year and that yesterday she went of to Sainsbury’s for the first time in two years.

She didn’t actually need to go shopping but the bus that connects with the supermarket is going to be discontinued at the end of the week and so she thought this last opportunity should be seized firmly by both wobbly legs.

The last time I visited she seemed unable even to walk around her own house so I am not sure how she was able to cope with a hyper store.

I suspect that one day I will receive a phone call from the police reporting her collapsed in the aisle between washing powder and eggs.
