How the shrubbery at Lidls looked before the big chop.

Today saw a team of about eight workmen clearing – with ruthless efficiency – the ornamental bushes and shrubs at our local supermarket. A Lidl’s spokeswoman said that a large amount of rubbish had accumulated in the shrubbery and it had been decided to cut down the vegetation to ground level. “The whole area will be re-planted with smaller shrubs which will be kept low for easy cleaning. The area was in danger of becoming infested with vermin”, she explained. Workmen said they had found a large number of bottles and cans and even needles and a fridge door!

...and how it looked afterwards, with literally hundreds of old drinks cans and plastic bottles...all bought at Lidls, of course.
