Re: Another High Street Rebrand

Stranger things have happened at Co-ops. The branch nearest my parents house still looked like this until c.2009 We used to have several "late shops" in that same style (there's a photo here of the one in Clipstone) , though they all became "Co-op Welcome" at pretty much the sam...

I actually switched my car insurance to the co-op only a few weeks back. Rather sadly a few weeks too early to get paperwork with the new (old) logo on!

Re: The BIG MetroPoll - IN or OUT ?

Today, the odds on a "remain" vote are the shortest they've been, and the odds on a "leave" vote are the longest. http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-britain-eu-bookmaker-odds-idUKKCN0YE21C If a "leave" vote is the certainty I've heard countless Brexiters insisting, then s...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand

Interestingly there was a Co-op in Sheffield that still had the 1968 cloverleaf on the outside until at least 2012 (it's since become a B&M) https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.4037072,-1.5022564,3a,75y,327.2h,104.68t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sGkX5-Ajw3LgZzA6Sb3Mjxw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 The Co-op departme...
