Food & fashion retail in the uk is pretty good compared to most places. Shoppings probably the one good thing about the uk

Bath & body works?

Covent Garden

Bergdorf Goodman. Something to rival with Horrids™ or some other pretentious department store.

Apart from Five Guys everything I've wanted to see open up (such as taco bell or Tim horton) has been wank.

As a wider point I'm not in favour of globalism either

"i think there used to be a wendy's in London back in the 80s"

There was. In fact the one in London was a trial to see if it was viable for a nationwide rollout across the Uk in all the Welcome Break service stations. At the time Welcome Break was owned by the Trust House Forte group. The whole thing went pear shaped after the breakup of Trust House Forte, so we ended up with Burger King, Maccie d's and KFC instead. A great shame because Wendy's was millions of times better than anything else.

Has inflation made it three buck chuck? Thought it was two buck chuck. Awful wine.
