Robert Carey, aged eight
Part 2 of a short story series about the young Robert Carey - and in case you don't already have it, you can get part 1 as well, A Pest of a Boy.
At last. I have ordered groceries online from Tesco, they arrived yesterday and they were the right ones. Hooray. Yippee!

A slight hitch with the peas – I thought I\’d ordered frozen peas, but I got tinned peas – never mind. I\’m staggered it all worked so well. I didn\’t even have to stay in all day.

I got put off buying books from Amazon because the package would invariably arrive when I wasn\’t in and I\’d have to traipse off to the local sorting office to pick it up – so much simpler to order from Waterstones, get it quicker and not even pay postage.

So just like my grandmother, I no longer have to go grocery shopping which is wonderful because I hate shopping. The only downside with Internet grocery shopping was not being able to decide what to have for dinner by looking on the cut-price section.
