Having flats above supermarkets actually seems like a rally good idea if you think about it. Not great for families maybe but if your were single or a young couple, it would be so ****ing handy...

...but what about though, TS...if it was so handy that the couple just felt as though they were popping downstairs to get something out of the fridge or freezer or cupboard etc...that they forgot to pay for it and then got arrested for shop lifting stuff...hmmmm, that wouldn’t be such a great and handy thing...
