A homage of sorts to many kinds, but my no means all, of store.
I spent a good deal of my formative years living above my parents' shop, which was a bit of all those described here as it sold fruit and vegetables, cigarettes, newspapers, confectionery, stationery and bread as well as strange random items like sports shoes — which they sold precisely zero of for 20 years, but still dedicated shelf space to.
Anyway, I digress as none of this is relevant to today’s search, which was a rudimentary affair – although I did enjoy finding the word CORNER in the corner.
