A5 spiral bound shopping list, lined, blue biro. Later addition of weedkiller in a black pen. A pen that was reluctant to work.
Shloer is a non alcoholic grape juice available in red, white or rosé.

Central Reservation
Interesting to see a centre justified list. Items are bunched around a mostly invisible centrally vertical dividing line. Although in some cases, Ham | Chicken are visibly separated with a vertical bar.
A5, lined and spiral bound paper.
Dog and cat owner, smoker?
Doritos are listed as well as tortilla chips. Hmm.
On the back of the list is a date “Wed 22nd, 2:30pm”.

Spa Water
A small piece of paper, torn on 3 sides. Maybe belonging to an older hand.
Unusual to see a particular brand of water required.
What is W.U.L? Ah – washing up liquid 🙂
I suppose Bis is biscuits. Ch Burgers are chicken. Marg is margarine.
Lidl, Reading, UK. 2nd June 2022
Mouse Treats
Very nice neat handwriting here, lots of items fitted on a folded A5 spiral bound piece of paper.
Likely a mother of children at school age, with pets. Mouse treats, “kid’s” crisps/snacks, cookie dough, lollies.
Meat captured in a separate area of the list in large parenthesis. Chicken, prawns, muscles, bacon, ribs, sausages.
Orzo pasta suggests a cook in the house.

Choc Dig
White paper, 145mm x 100mm, cut with scissors. Staple torn from upper left indicates that this sheet was once not alone.
This person has a sweet tooth. Items include Choc Dig (what is dig?), custard cream biscuits, cake and ice cream.
After all the sweetness, this shopper was planning the main meal. Diced beef has been crossed out and replaced by chicken thighs, to be served maybe as a stew with vegetables and mashed potato.

Doom Bar Boom Bar
A charming list. Torn spiral bound A5 note paper in biro.
Lots to say. A large shop, mostly food with the addition of [CASH], travel sick tabs and ‘table cover’.
Controlled Diet
Cryptic one this. I am not sure what this list is all about but maybe it is part of a controlled diet.
Lots of carbohydrates under a column called ‘Weigh’. Week 2 suggests this is a multi-week endeavour.
Sainsbury’s, Reading, 2nd June.
Cooking String
Quartered and torn A4 paper, folded many times. Blue pen. Capitalised lower case. A top up food shop with clothing.
On the rear, 16 biscuits:

Queen’s Platinum Jubilee
It is the weekend of Queen Elizabeth II’s platinum Jubilee in the U.K. (June 2022). It is a glorious warm weekend. The Queen has not been feeling too well but took the trouble to make a couple of very welcome appearances to the cheering crowds.
The Friday mentioned on the list is the 2nd June 2022. This person is celebrating by buying:
- Lunch
- Nibbles
- Drinks
- Water
For other days they need, milk, mushrooms, two types of chocolate with numbers, shortbread and something called ‘gold lustre spray’. I presume gold lustre spray is this, used for add edible gold for cake decorations and other edible delights.
Sainsbury’s, Reading.

Rooibos
A gratefully received contribution.
A5 spiral bound note paper, black pen, likely biro. Price comparison of Mini Chedders in the bottom left.
A well rounded list with a mixture of meat, veg, fish and dairy.
What are 44s?
Costco, Reading
1st June 2022
P.S. having never heard of Rooibos, the next day I saw this on the side of a van. I wonder if it the same.
