If it's Thursday...

 There was a cult film back in the 70s called "On Any Sunday".  In our case, it's "On Any Thursday", and in our case, it doesn't feature motorbikes; it focuses on shopping trolleys. 

We were up at our usual time and walked to Zoe's to accompany Ellie to school. Diane then headed home, while I set out on my morning walk. Lottie was already starting her blitz of the house by the time I returned home for breakfast. Once I had tidied away the breakfast things, I finished the shopping list, and we headed to Sainsbury's.

There seemed to be a new, younger breed of Zombies there today. These were an entitled breed who blocked the aisles and wandered off without their trolleys to collect things. Though the store wasn't busy, it was congested, and the thought of fitting curved blades to the trolley wheels seemed alluring.

We dropped a few items off for Zoe and became embroiled in a call with Apple. Zoe was trying to install some additional apps on Ellie's phone. She had, however, locked it down and was having trouble unlocking the ability to install new apps. I eventually cracked the problem, so now Ellie can do her Maths practise on her phone.

We had a quiet hour or so with our Kindles after lunch, then set off to collect Ellie and take her home. Zoe's friend Tammy and son Brodie are visiting this afternoon, so we left them to it.
