  may be tesco's bubble has burst,or at least got a slow punture.other supermarkets have taken avantage of tesco's missfortune of having to many out of town shops.
  
  ps,a lot of tesco's ex shoppers are now going to morrisons in dover,locally speaking.

  that's right brian, morrison's was packed out this morning.
  
  saw keith in there, the manager was chewing over whether he wanted him as a customer. finally decided he would prefer mr worrall thompson.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Alot of people now shop around more to get best value, have to agree with Brian there alot of people moved to shopping at Morrisons because it is more central, there are still a few bits I like to get in tesco but my preference is Morrisons.
