161. "upper-middle class latte-drinkers"
You gotta laugh at that expression even though this is serious subject. I hope you're not classing me as one of those just cos I've got a decent espresso machine an ex-girlfriend bought me for Xmas 6 years ago.

It's different here in the UK . The supermarkets have not all been moved out of town - not were I live anyway. As a result I can easily avoid Walmart / Asda - I just go to Sainsburys instead as they face each other across a road. I can also walk to the supermarket if I feel like it - we don't all have to bear the cost of increased fuel charges for such routine things. One day maybe you'll get local shopping centres back too - in general we never lost them.
