Victoria Biscuit Selection

Posted on by Host

Baby Pot, swede, butter, cherry tom, sweetheart, broc rice, royals x 4 and of course, mange.

Vegetarian menu, two types of potatoes.

This list is written on the reverse of a label. A price label from a supermarket shelf. Did the person find the label at the supermarket and write the list there. Or did they get the label on a previous trip, take it home and write the list? Or maybe, they work at a super market, take these labels home in bulk and use them for general notes and list making.

The label is for this fine product, McVities Victoria Biscuit Selection – “Turn any occasion into a celebration”.

Nice!

School Blouses 

Posted on by Host

A simple list appropriate for the time of year when it is the school Summer holiday but the Autumn term comes inevitably closer.

I would suggest that the owner of this list intended to visit one of the larger super markets which sells clothes, household goods and food.  Alternatively this was a list for a visit to ‘town’ where multiple shops were to be visited.  I don’t see many of those lists.

Whoever the owner is, she has a sweet tooth and so do her friends.  The owner is female.

Interesting curve on the top of the capitalised letter F.  Normally this is more of a 90 degree angle.

 

Bannans

Kindly dontated by Andy.  This shopping list was found in a Sainsbury’s in Oxfordshire. This is a bit traditional with lard, sprouts and tinned fruit but the item to note is the Bannans [sic].

Two Big Yoghurts

Posted on by Host

 

No meat here.  Mainly fruit and veg.  Not much to make whole meals, pasta, rice etc.

This person really likes their numbers but ironically is not a fan of plurals. 4 grapefruit, 2 big yoghurt etc.

A decent list on traditional paper representing a rounded, 5 a day, diet.

Small banana, small satsuma, grape, lettuce, peppers, tomatoes x 2, onions red, sweet potatoes, potato x 2, 2 big yoghurt, 1 bread, peanut butter, olives, two lemonade, 4 grapefruit, 1 milk.

Kindly found and supplied by Andy.

Barney the Owl

Posted on by Host


Mayonnaise, mince, granola, not sure, crisps, Barney???, eggs.

Very nice owl on the note paper. Item 4 is hard to read and item 6 is Barney, who or what is Barney?

Items 1 & 2 are in a different hand to the rest.

Found by Andy (actually Mrs. Andy) at Sainsbury’s in Didcot.
