Unusually I know who wrote these lists (I won't embarrass him). I love the 'Rachel snacks - fat content' on the bottom one - well she was pregnant at the time!

An excited hand (when writing the word lottery), I find it interesting when 'lottery' appears on a list, especially since this list comes from Cirencester Waitrose and I'm not sure they sell lottery tickets there. Does that say 'Chewy' underneath - guess that's for the dog?

January 2006 - seems January is a good time for shopping lists, maybe people are re-stocking after Christmas. Waitrose Cirencester.

Why is the Ginger Wine just for Jane?
Maybe because the list author has a cold (note the Lemsip)

Oh! do we have to choose between custard or cream - why can't we have both?

This one is so organised, don't see the ingredients for Kedgeree - but I'll be round on Thursday as it's my favourite.

More from January, Cirencester Waitrose. Busy time.

I think this list was written by a woman (the handwriting),

I wonder if the cigars were for her too?

Unsure about the cream?

Thinking of you, aunty. Do you think that the deodrant was forgotten - smelly!

Dr Joolz very kindly found out what Movicol is -

"Macrogol is an inert substance that passes through the gut without being absorbed into the body. It relieves constipation because it causes the water it is taken with to be retained in the bowel instead of being absorbed into the body. This increases the water content and volume of the stools in the bowel, making them softer and easier to pass."

Great choice for a shopping list then!!

And what the hell is a 'cynthic card'?

Is Sam on the list to purchase, or is this a reminder about Sam? Who is Sam?

Is there a different type of bread if you are going to toast it?

Trying to be healthy? Wonder what 'tea tonight' was?

Think a new pen should be on the list!?

Flower piano? - and don't forget the Salmon

Back when I started collecting I didn't have the foresight to write on them the date I picked them up. All the above came from Cirencester Waitrose in December 2005. I also photographed them instead of scanning.

Waitrose Cirencester - well it would be wouldn't it?! Hamper!

Okay, so this one might be cheating a little as it's Mum's list - but check out the paper!!
