Sainsburys, likewise have Sainsburys Local which are also convenience stores. Your note on the Tesco recycling facility did make me laugh though. Until recently Tesco did have automatic recycling machines, which gave you loyalty points for aluminum drinks cans. These have now (locally at least) been removed and replaced with more traditional recycling bins. https://p10.secure.hostingprod.com/@spyblog.org.uk/ssl/london_cyberpunk_tourist_guide/images/Tesco_count_the_CCTV_cameras_450.jpg Phil (trigpoint) _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
