Anybody who knows me will confirm that I am a speed shopper.  Surgical strike.  In, out – and unless it is something that I need to sample or try on, best delivered to my front door in the first place anyway.

Helped by actually having the weekend time to do it (no grass to cut, cars to wash, DIY to perform, or sadly, motorcycles to ride), living in Colombo has re-taught me the pleasure of having to go, seek, decide and buy.  There are home delivery services, but not at the scale and speed that we take for granted in the UK.

Taking Míša out to purchase a home printer was a lovely way to spend a few hours, and the shopping a pleasure.
