owners the cause of this? Most 2nd home owners, (city types), fill up, and buy their groceries and beer at city supermarkets, contributing nothing to the village community.
 
I just think it is the Vast Supermarkets on the Edge of Cities and Towns that are doing this. Because these Supermarkets can Buy in Bulk and Dictate the Prices to the Producers so forcing down the Price of Produce all the Customers flock to them in their Cars.

The ordinary Village Shops cannot cope with this because they have to stick with the Standard Prices and cannot give Reductions and so their Goods are Dearer than the Supermarkets. A lot of Supermarkets even sell their own Petrol and Diesel in their own Filling Stations. A lot of Customers are stocking up with Cheaper Booze at Supermarkets and Drinking at Home instead of going to the Pub. It is not possible to Drink and Drive anymore and get away with it so more People are Drinking at Home.

The only People left are the regular Customers,those without Cars and Old People.
