Change of mind

Change is not always for the better - not as far as the Co-op is concerned.
Correction, that's co-operative now. I've been aware for a while that things are different in my local shops. They've joined the other big chains by introducing a premium slot - it's Taste the Difference at Sainsbury's, for instance.
Everything is getting the same branding, from the bags I get my repeat prescriptions in to the needless cellophane wrappers on the new-ish (and excellent) boutique bakery lines. Yes, in the worst modern design trend it's all lower case and it's now in bold. My lifelong favourite shop, the Co-op, where we still collect our divi, is co-operative now.
