Yesterday, it was 2½ years since Tesco’s been with us. Yes, that long. Today’s Sunday and whether we like it or not Tesco’s taken the day over by storm. At 1.00 this afternoon, the Tesco car park was ¾ full whereas the Co-op’s smaller one was ¾ empty. Inside Co-op there were eight shoppers (there were nearly three times as many cars as patrons). Inside Tesco, 117, with cars and people coming or going all the time. Pre-Tesco, there was never *anything* like 117 between the Co-op and the old KwikSave/Somerfield. You might have seen 20-30 at its peak. Before that, the old town centre Co-op was never open on s Sunday. Tesco’s been a revolution. And something of a revelation: at 1.00 this afternoon, there was a Co-op employee pushing a trolley round.
