the co-op bought somerfield but because they already have a shop up the road they sold to morrisons.this has happend in numerous locations.
Rumours from within the shop that Morrisons are having second thoughts about the Gorse Hill store. Too small to be viable apparently. |

Which is all good because the co-op is fucking ace. The big one in old town is my favourite shop.
Certainly one of the finest shops in the land. There's just something very serene about it - you never see anyone who has any kind of responsibility set foot in there. I think if there was a nuclear war going on outside, the co-op wouldn't change at all. |

I moved away from old town in 2002, coming back for games and a few friendly visits focused around the pub. I was back for a game last year and was a bit early so I popped up the co-op for a wander and to buy a paper (my life, as you can tell, is full of excitement). The place had not changed one bit in six years - I still new where to find a copy of the independent, a bag of crisps and some sausages for that evening's dinner. It was awesome. I also, many years back, managed to get twenty pounds cashback from the co-op and throw the note straight in to the bin outside. Didn't notice until four hours in the pub had elapsed and I had run out of money. Hence the amusing scene of drunk Doore rummaging through the bins outside the co-op at 10pm. Found the twenty and, in the most generous act of my life, bought a round of drinks with it. fB might (or might not!) remember that one. |

Co-Op wher I live consists of a larger than average alcohol section mixed in with a larger than average "fresh" bread section. It's interesting but it works. The intermediate two sections allow you to buy all your other daily's, including Danidh Blue cheese. Curious....
