    I'm sure all locally sourced, organically grown shops and businesses in Morningside will be delighted to hear this...

    The catchments they go for are the higher demographic areas and the stores tend to be 20,000-30,000 square feet, so it's a smaller supermarket.

    So. Somewhere you can drive to then, and buy yourself some natural, organic, locally-sourced peace of mind. I suppose I'll have to go to Tesco if I want my "un-natural" food.

    But will they have decent bike parking?
