I am all for getting on with rebuilding and giving people their shops back. I usually shop in Pack and Save or stack and slave as i like to call it. Prices by and large a lot lower than any other ones. It is nice however to walk into a shop where everything is new and clean and people are cheerful.So thumbs up for this New World in St Martin's.

Brillant! Zany & colourful, wildly asymetrical, and with all kinds of buildings that could be - anything!
Way way better than the dour concrete monolithisation that is currently proposed & pushed for- -

the new supermarket in St Martin’s
Thanks for the pics Gudrun, it looks so shiny and new! Again, out-of-towners probably won’t appreciate what a wonder a rebuilt supermarket is for us.
What I look forward to most is familiar smiling faces on the checkouts! I hope they’ve been able to re-employ lots of their former staff.
I like to support businesses where the staff look contented. Some supermarkets you can tell they’re hating every minute. -

A Hundertwasser precinct would be a fine thing. A pity he isn't still alive to help out.

Oh thanks. :-) I was watching it while walking home and got in just in time to capture it before it set behind the hill! I felt a little like Harold from Harold and the Purple Crayon (“wherever he went, the moon went with him”).
