That really would be a shame. Well, I use as many nurseries or independent garden stores as I can, and I suspect many urglers do, too. Can be difficult as owners retire or move on. For years my Mother had enjoyed visiting an independent garden store near Bude in Cornwall. She no longer drives so on my monthly visits from Hampshire it is often a welcome opportunity for a day out and to get some supplies, have a tea and cake etc. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a couple of chaps wearing the Uniform of one of the big groups wandering around. Asking at the till if they were on a spying mission the till operator who was also wearing a uniform jumper replied ",No we have already taken over, the owners have retired. Today is the day we start to change till systems over,I'm down from the Midlands to help. We won't be changing the name and things will carry on as before. " Meanwhile most of the Cafe staff were obviously being briefed by a manager. No changes? We shall see. I bet the bird feeders get the chop, a corporate manager is bound to stop the budget for filling them. G.Harman |
