No wood, but plenty of organic bread !

When I got back to the lorry I expected to find it stuffed to the roof with wood for Kent, but I was surprised , and releaved to find it had been replaced by organic bread and mushrooms for Manchester. It was an organic food store run as a cooperative.





When I got to the store there was a great smell coming from inside and being mid morning, it made me feel really hungary so I went in for a look.

I was amazed that in a shop as big as the average supermarket I couldn't find anything I even recognised , let alone faced eating.

I could smell the deli as it was seving hot food, but tofu wraps and squash soup wasn't doing it for me.

I saw a somosa that looked edible and decided to buy one.

When I bit into it, it was so hard I was worried that I'd crack my tooth again. It went straight back into it's bag.



Another thing that was very disconcerting was that all the staff and customers looked so ill. Pasty complexion, lank hair and really all rather grumpy looking.

I know I bang on about healthy eating but after this visit I had to rush into a fast food restuarant, just to cheer myself up a bit.


After the fun in Manchester I was to be found scavenging around the back of the fair looking for a roofers yard in Bolton.

















And then after a boring run down to Oxford today , another visit to wood hell. Coventry and Leicester.


I took a 15 minute break on the motorway and noticed this run down building at Leicester.


The scariest moment of the day came when driving home in my car and this herd of cows came charging around the corner, straight at me, followed by farmers on qaud bikes. Weird end to a friday but it's not like a volcano has been spouting hot ash all over Europe and stopped air travel or anything has it.



Moooooooo!!!!!!!
