Post-Christmas gloom is never more evident than in the supermarket. The realisation that festive shopping won't stretch any further than the first few days of January ensures a reluctant return to the emporia we'd quite happily never visit again.
Paranoid overbuying by supermarkets means there are bargain to be had in the first week of January - whether anyone wants them or not! Really, though, there are only so many tubs of Celebrations and Pringles one can bear to look at, even at low low January prices, but represent an early threat to any New Year's Resolutions.
So, back to Morrison's we went, for what would be a drawn out 'big shop'. However, despite my reservations about choosing what is obviously a fading supermarket over the nearby behemoth Tesco and notwithstanding a butcher with very vocal Tourette's Syndrome, Morrison's 'Radio' is usually a good listen. And so it proved.
For those with an ear for these things, all supermarkets as well as the likes of Superdrug and Home Bargains play tracks that should you stay for a certain length of time are almost guaranteed to be heard on every visit. Whilst some gems were heard in Morrison's, some 'old favourites' were never far away:
Future Islands - A Dream of You and Me
Sam Sparro - Black and Gold
