I went to a local free food market this morning (where they distribute food being thrown out from the supermarkets. etc). and it was quite entertaining for people watching today. The volunteer who was organising people had no tolerance for people trying to cheat - a few people got sent away with nothing after trying to use old tickets to get in the queue sooner, and a few people got forced to empty food back out of their bags after ignoring the item limits (one guy multiple times!).
I got a few odds and ends including some mixed colour cherry tomatoes. I've kept a few of each colour for seeds to grow my own - I just need to work out where in the garden I want to put them.
