Lots of dairy. One sausage?

'all your domiciliary optical requirements' - so that will be home visit opticians then?

Bit early for a BBQ? Ready lettuce? surely lettuce is always ready...

All the basics.

Black out.

I'm told by my friend Liz that when things are grouped in this manner it's because that's the way the supermarket is laid out, veg first, then dairy and always near the end boring things like laundry liquids and washing.

The back of this list had a to-do list, obviously not for the supermarket trip.

Obviously the owner of the list is too posh to grate their own cheese!

Not a good use of paper, but very clear.

This is one of the lists which contains something that I'm sure the author understood, but it's a mystery to me - ASSABEE?

A burning question - did they get the pickled cucumbers? and do they mean gherkins?

Pirate stuff - ooooh! sounds fun, can we all come along?!

Don't forget the glasses.

1 lot of bun??

This one is very strange, the weights make it seem like a recipe shopping list but a lot of it is unintelligible. The '1' figures make me think this is not from a native English speaker.

Instead of screwing it up it had been neatly folded but the paper appears to have been folded and unfolded again many times.

Healthy food, nothing there that could be considered bad for you - except perhaps 'wines'.

Great paper too, Oriental or Arabic. Not really big enough for the list, and there was nothing on the back (perhaps if the back was used there would be fear of forgetting to turn it over and then missing something?)

There's some real anger in that crossing out, almost manic in places.

A household that likes their bread and pasty perhaps?

Started off neat, and then ran out of room - the think about using a post-it note is that it's not easy to use the back.

I'm guessing that 'Matthew' isn't on the list to buy, but the wedding card is for him - I wonder if he's marrying someone else, they aren't mentioned!

In fact although I found this list at Waitrose I'd guess that none of the items on it can be bought in a supermarket, except the wedding card and possibly the printer ink.

Not just a shopping list, but also a to-do list and possibly a backing list for a holiday?
