I used to shop frequently at Londis. I enjoyed chatting with the hard-working staff there. It felt a friendly and intimate environment. I almost don't want to look at the photo. This is unfortunate.

Maybe you can ask the person who manages the store if they'll do one of your podcasts to talk about how business has changed. I'm lucky enough to live near a Co-op and I've never shopped in Tescos in all my 46 years! I've no intention of starting. There's a nice summary article about the 'tesco town' problem in The Independent last March: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/analysis-and-features/the-big-question-is-tesco-now-too-powerful-in-britain-and-can-its-growth-ever-be-checked-1637575.html nice picture and question to ask.
