Ringing Out the Old.

Today I walked around the town where I used to live. I needed a loaf and went to the supermarket where I used to shop, only to find the windows boarded up and the place empty.

I shopped at that supermarket about three times a week for over nine years. It was only about a mile away so I used to walk, and I became very fond of the place. It was the only supermarket I ever got fond of. Nearly every time I went there I would see people I knew and stop for a chat. It was like going to the local pub. And now it’s closed. Sad.
