I thought I'd already posted this, but I couldn't see it so I thought I'd share this old time container for media goods from a certain outlet that is sadly no longer with us, leaving one dog based giant controlling the media market. Their stores seem for the moment, untouched, as if no one wants to remove the relic or disturb the memory of happier times. I'm going to hold on to this bag in case the day comes when the signs are torn down and we can no longer reminisce about price comparisons or, if you are old enough, about how Virgin stores used to occupy that space - lamentable times, lamentable times indeed.
I'll commemorate this with a weekly quote
"It's no use; men are the strongest, and if they are cruel and have no feeling, there is nothing that we can do, but just bear it in and on to the end. I wish the end would come." - Black Beauty, Anna Sewell
And for good measure:
Word of the post: Cognizant –adjective
1.
having cognizance; aware (usually fol. by of): He was cognizant of the difficulty.
