Trolley 8

The feeblest recovery yet, this M&S trolley being picked up outside the nearby Wetherspoons.

Took the opportunity to take a look at the wine at M&S, where there seemed to be as much choice as at Waitrose, but which somehow did not appeal, not sure why. So back to Waitrose to do my stocking up.

Mainly white, but, following a mention in a recent episode of Morse, tried a Pomerol. If we like it, a quick scout around suggests that one can pay up to about £2,000 a bottle for the stuff, so 1st Division rather than Premier League, and Hedonism doesn't seem to carry much of the stuff at all, sporting a meagre choice of 3.

Got on well with the star shaped, new to me plastic bottle bag previously acquired by BH from Waitrose, the Sainsbury's equivalent having seemed a bit too feeble to trust with a full load, with the bottom panel looking very worn despite having been barely used. Fit for storage but not for transport. While the sixth compartment of the bottle bag proved very handy for the transport of the Evening Standard.

PS: looking at the picture now, not sure that the thing did not come from Waitrose. Right shape but wrong livery for M&S? Must take a closer look when I am next in town.
