Theo's surrogate grandmother collected him and took him to her place for the morning so I could rest while Robin did the weekly shop. Robin checked with me about which supermarket to go to. Because when he was in Sainsbury's last they didn't have the toilet paper we usually use, I said he should go to Sainsbury's in March and then also to Lidl. While that happened I went back to bed and slept for over two hours.

When Robin got home I checked the shopping list and asked him whether the fact that he hadn't crossed it off meant that he hadn't been able to get the toilet paper. He said that they hadn't had it and there hadn't even been a blank spot on the shelf where it should have been. Robin put away the chilled/frozen items and we then went out and collected Theo.

After we got back I started on putting away the dry goods. The things from Lidl were fine. In putting the other items away I discovered that the reason Robin had been unable to get the toilet paper was that instead of going to Sainsbury's in March he'd gone to Tesco! Not unreasonably Tesco don't stock Sainsbury's own brand recycled paper toilet paper!

MEN!
