As if by magic Monday becomes Tuesday

Tuesdays are always an early start, first conf call of the day is at 7:00am, this requires MrGrumpy to ensure he is heading to work by 6:30am. This morning that was not a problem, he was in the office by 6:40am and had already gone through is inbox and a mug of coffee before 7:00am.
The next call is at 9:00am giving him a chance to action anything he needs to from his inbox before preparing for the call.

At breakfast MrGrumpy noticed the cornflakes are almost out (maybe just enough for tomorrow), this will require him to either go without or buy some more.
Going food shopping is on a par with ordering food. It is very high on MrGrumpy's list of things that he hates doing, maybe not quite as high as ironing or tidying up.
When MrGrumpy does go food shopping, the stores are generally pretty quiet, but there are always two types on inhabitants.
One is always on a mission, get-in, grab-stuff and leave (generally with a screaming rugrat in tow).
The other is always wandering up and down the asiles, aimlessly like a zombie, in search of something but not knowing what. 
MrGrumpy is one of the latter types, he trawls the store asile by asile, by the end of the ordeal, he can tell you where items are and how much stock is on the shelf. 
What really annoys him most, is that when he finally gets home, he always remembers something that he should have brought!

MrGrumpy hit a bit of a wall when looking up a config setting, the datasheet sent him to the config key settings, where he was directed to see the datasheet! Recursive documentation links are almost as useful as no documentation.
