    True. I'll buy one if it smells of a combination of old books, synthetic weed, cheap incense and gay men

    Mum'll be pleased. She HATES Somerfield and isn't too keen on Tesco either, but Morrisons is ages away.

    Could parallels be drawn with the redevelopment of Sri Lanka after the Tsunami. IE. Redevelopment that puports to be for the benefit of a wider group and potentially further marginalises the group that occupied the land beforehand.

    Or just pure and simple gentrification if you prefer.

    Tesco Maryhill is more visibly manky than Morrisons in Partick.
