The pace and scale of the change is quite mind blowing - mind you, as more people are flooding to the city I'm glad to be able to reside just outside it's reach. Crapification is a good word to describe what I'm seeing this morning 😆 You're right about the small business thing too - there used to be a shop for everything around here, not any more though, they've all be converted to flats 😞

And now everything is a big supermarket. I miss the corner store and the small shops with interesting things in them and the people that operated them.

We used to have a little supermarket owned and run by a Portuguese family and he knew all of us that came in. Now it’s a chain store 😔
