That sounds nice.

I'm having prawn mayonnaise sandwiches on malted bread and a mini trifle.

Great Sam, as per usual. Less busy than on a Saturday when we usually go but still had to stand up on the trains/trams.

The worst thing is (I've noticed this especially in London, tbh) people standing up regardless of how many vacant seats there are, so you hop on thinking it's more busy and crowded than it is.

…I love Vivaldi potatoes/Sainsburys…they’re always my one of choice for any potato occasion…mashed/roast/baked etc…but they’re not great atm, I’m noticing…they’re never quite as good in the summer as they are other times of the year…/potato discussion……

Yes I shop in Sainsbury's as well. I sometimes go into M&S to try a few items. I used to shop in Asda but don't think the quality of the food is as good and find the atmosphere of the store to be aggressive.

I'm a fan of M and S, even though they are a bit pricier.

Hate Asda, dont like their meat, it always looks like it beyond the expiry date

…I think we get used to a store as well so if we’re in a less familiar store and feel less certain of the layout etc then it can feel less ‘friendly’ also, you know…Sainsbury’s is my nearest store and has been for many years …(…and I used it all through COVID times for click and collect, which was magical……)…….I do shop at others as well at times/dependant on what I’m looking for but they’re all that but further to travel to, though…(…I can walk to Sainsbury’s, which is lovely…) …Tesco is pretty good, though and we have a good Waitrose and M & S also, both in the town centre…
