Having known my friend, the Tool Man, would be going to the cheapest of cheap supermarkets, I'd limited my request to 7 items (2 of which I actually got), as well as limiting my expectations 
However, I know that supermarket do a surprisingly tasty apple turnover, and the small baked goods section is right next to the front entrance, and hard to miss. The Tool Man told me, "I got you some egg custards." This, despite the fact, that I have told him, numerous times, (because they are a favourite of his), most recently that morning, that I no longer enjoy egg custards. 
I put them in the fridge, and they had the texture and taste of damp cardboard 
I'm sure that my friend would be mortified - not by their rottenness, but by the fact he had actually purchased what was supposed to be a Portuguese tart, Pastel de Nata! 
I'll be sure to let him know at some point

[anger][sorrow][fear]It's terrible here at the moment mate, there are people having strokes, who can't get an ambulance until the next day! And hundreds of people waiting overnight in ambulances because the hospitals are that busy, and under-staffed, they can't deal with anymore admissions. I am hoping to get a referral back to the hospital where I've been treated before, but heaven knows how long that will take. I'm hoping I can get a recommendation for a private osteopath or chiropractor, but think I need new x-rays first

LOL! And he's funny!
Prices are going crazy here too
I don't often order takeaway food, but since my fridge is empty, and I couldn't get a supermarket delivery until tomorrow afternoon (£200), I thought I'd order a pizza for later - £21 for a basic 12" Domino's pizza!

Well, resting it doesn't seem to be helping... so you might try it.

Sorry you back is still hurting Jack. Doesn’t sound like the Tool Man would make a very good personal shopper.Having known my friend, the Tool Man, would be going to the cheapest of cheap supermarkets, I'd limited my request to 7 items (2 of which I actually got), as well as limiting my expectations

I don’t know John, a tour ending party sounds pretty fun to me, maybe you should slip out of your office and join them!

It'll be fine... They are all really good kids and their idea of a party is playing board games, video games, Dungeons and Dragons type games, and feasting on snacks.
See above.
Although, I may sneak out for some snacks. I keep forgetting that one is Stag. It turned out really beautiful.
