Andrew Scott shopping in Lumdsen. He is looking at the hardware section and just past the wine section. What sort of food would he be stocking up on?
Oh, that's much better Andrew Scott, Chocolate milk, a tomato and a carrot! That should be good for another 80 kms on the bike today. — in Lumsden, New Zealand.

Nathan Mawkes restocking. The basket has room for more Nathan. — with Nathan Mawkes in Lumsden, New Zealand.
