LETTER:Before superstores

From Mr J. Douch

Sir: In our town centre we have a Tesco with walls decorated with photographs similar to those in Dorchester's (letter, 11 June), dating from the 1920s. I do not recall those palmy days, but whenever I return from shopping I feel grateful that I do not have to undergo what, from these photographs at least, seems to have been an extremely dreary experience. Is this what Tesco is trying to tell me?

Yours faithfully,

JOHN DOUCH
