Strawberry did come round with the shopping.
She made two trips to the shop, and came back with her shopping trolley loaded with vegetables.
Fresh food at last!
Just as well, because Ruffy rang to ask about my health.
But it’s true, I am a bit thinner than I used to be. Maybe I’ll weigh myself.
I used to be four ounces exactly. But I don’t seem to be that heavy now.
I lost the one-ounce weight, so I use a spoon instead.
There, that’s about right. What does that add up to?
One and a half ounces, and sixty grams.
I wouldn’t say that’s dangerously underweight, would you?
I’ve eaten the celery, but there’s nothing else I really fancy eating.
I’ll put chocolate biscuits on the shopping list.
I hope Ruffy won’t say they’re too unhealthy.
