I shop mostly at Surrey Street Market now: > http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1718360 > Fish and meat come from the fishmonger and butcher around the corner. We get as much as possible of our stuff delivered from Organic Delivery (http://www.organicdelivery.co.uk, though their site is not great, sadly :-/ ). They do tins & stuff as well as veg, though the basis of our weekly order is their small veg box. You don't know what you're going to get, but this does lead to interesting eating. Though I wish they wouldn't put cucumber in - still, the rats like it. Stuff we can't get there comes from the Co-op down the road (which may be a supermarket but at least is a smaller & less scary one); Tescos across the park is a last resort. We're currently considering getting a delivery from them, or possibly Ocado, for those items, every month or so. BTW, does anyone know who, other than Ocado, have the 'green delivery' option, whereby you put your order in with another one also coming to your area, to reduce van-miles? Juliet
