Same over here.

A lot of the old little shops on out high streets have been closed down due to the rise and rise of the supermarkets.

I know it makes sense to be able to get everything from the same place but i miss the days of being able to go to different shops to get our stuff.
I used to do that as a boy with my Nana,carried her shopping bags for her. Happy memories \:\)


Now i just push a cart round the market whilst my wife throws everything in. It's soul destroying \:\/

And don't get me started on them car parks ;\)

I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!
