    Day: 13 October 2007
    Time: around lunchtime
    Mood: a happy camper
    In my happy holiday  mood I decided to take a tour to Tesco following my calorie burn-off at the gym. A salad would suit my healthy day perfectly. Unbeknown to me, this salad would be the start of a long and sorry tale of disgust, complaints and […]
