When your mother-in-law is not as fleet of foot as she once was, it's comforting to know that the Social Services are on hand to take her shopping once a week.
Comforting and baffling.
It transpires that Graham who accompanies "the Duchess" has been given a new set of rules to follow. There is no difference to routine. It is still the Post Office for pension and Sainsbury's for food.
However, Graham has announced that it is no longer permissible to purchase birthday cards at the Post Office. This must now be done at Sainsbury's.
Naturally he is unable to offer a reason why this is so.
So no browsing at cards in the queue at the Post Office (where there is a better selection I am reliably informed). Instead there is to be a detour between fruit and veg and household cleaning to Sainsbury's rather average card department.
Perfect logic to absolutely no-one but the person who dreamed this up.
