Brrr
I was in an M&S food shop the other day and there – more than any other shop I go into – it’s freezing!
At the risk of sounding like my late father: “We are not here to keep the whole of London cold”
Ok, I paraphrased, he would have said heat and it wouldn’t have been London but my point remains. I cannot believe that the best way to keep the food fresh is to make the store uncomfortably cold. I know those open fridges can’t help but make the air around them cool but there must be a solution which is more efficient? I wonder what their electricity bills are like?
Those horrible rubber curtain things might be unsightly but perhaps they are effective?
Meh! What do I know about refrigerated retail anyway?
I just hate having to put more clothes on when I go indoors. Seems to defeat the purpose of shelter.
