Now I know how Tesco felt



HIYA!!!

You are probably wondering how a supermarket chain more commonly associated with 'land-grabbing' and local organisations advocating on behalf of conumers and small business could understand how I felt when I saw this sign in Thane in India.

Well the simple answer is of course; a supermarket with this sort of profile could never understand the excitment! But maybe the guy who stayed along the street from me who was called Thomas Edward Stanley (nickname Tesco) could, when Willie Low's shut down and Tesco opened in its place.

I just need to track him down for a conversation about the experience! Just as well he wasn't called Stanley Edward Thomas or Edward Thomas Stanley or Stanley Thomas Edward - then I would have no-one to talk to about the unique experience of discovering a shop that you share the name of!

If you think that this is a bit of dodgy writing - then you should go and check out Ask a Ninja!

HIYA!!!
