Facing The Facts

Ailz has been suggesting for a while now that we should shop online and I've been holding out because of a reluctance to act my age but this week I thought of all the lifting involved in trip to the supermarket and much how my bones ache and I said, "OK, do it".

Soon kind people will take you to the shops, because it's good to get out of the house. But they'll do the carrying and you'll only be buying tuna anyway.

(FWIW, internet shopping is awesome, except for fresh fruit and veg.)

I hope not. I can't stand tuna.

I relied completely on internet shopping, when I lived a nile for the bus stop. Even now, I use it quite a lot - it works quite well, in my experience, although I agree that it can occasionally be a let down over fresh food, such as vegetables. Even then, they get the message fairly quickly if you refuse stuff that isn't up to scratch

We've used the internet on and off in the past. The way I feel right now I think we'll be using it for the forseeable future.
