Here's a tip. If it's raining, and a bit windy, and you have no large rucksack, holdall or old lady's shopping trolley - don't go hog-wild at the market and buy 9kg of assorted stuff. You will find it difficult to control your umbrella while holding a carrier bag in the same hand, and the other three carrier bags will bang against your legs and make you cross.

On the plus side, I have potatoes, onions, aubergines (2 of them - only 39p each), mushrooms, lettuce, coriander, tomatoes, peppers, courgettes, bananas, apples, ginger, garlic, hazelnuts, pine nuts, almonds, apricots, oats, couscous, puppodums, soy mince and chocolate.
