Tesco is one of the worlds leading international retailers. Since the company first the trading name of Tesco, in the mid 1920s, the group has expanded into different formats, different markets and different sectors. The UKs leading retailer Tesco was floated on the stock exchange in 1947 and in 1995 took over rival Sainsburys position as the UK number one. The principal activity of the group is food retailing, with over 2,000 stores worldwide. Tesco has a long term strategy for growth, based on four key parts: growth in the Core UK business, to expand by growing internationally, to be as strong in non-food as in food and to follow customers into new retailing services. The company launched a home shopping service in 2000, allowing customers to order their shopping online. Tesco is now expanding its convenience stores and overseas into areas such as Taiwan, Malaysia, Poland, the US and Ireland.

As per post #195, sp dropped sharply, then dropped again, so not a done deal yet, imo.

we'll see but rf 210 is correct along with other data available

got mine at 332.0679 so wait and see now as this is grossly overdone imho

robin i can not see you regretting that - i like my northerly trends and at the moment tsco is on an upward incline :-)))

4.5 hrs left :-)))) till bogof ends today!

In at 330 now looking a good deal. Buys and sells much more even now on the order book ;-)

splat well done - 335 just smashed - onwards and upwards :-))) personally be disappointed if we are not anywhere between 345 - 365 at least cob

difficult to analyse accurately right now - so many trades!!!

Unfortunately, Worral was a bit like a squirrel,..or in the words of Janet Street Porter or Jonathan Ross : wooral was like a squorral...oh dear...euh..sorry........to be fair to him, it might be an illness of some kind....he is one of the best chefs in Britain !......a bit unlucky with the downturn.....

he's a crap chef and his pubs are awful ..... nevertheless, i have much sympathy for him as seemingly do most of the locals ...... stress does strange things to people and makes them act in odd ways ...... nevertheless, stress is not an excuse per se

post 217 .
i bet you never break the law .
it is in bad taste

not really - it's quite a clever play on words and pretty gentle

meanwhile, if like me you reckon sbry is a totally crap outfit (they've just opened in marlow, and it's truly awful and ignored by most of the locals), does one but tsco or mrw?

There is a big difference being a talented chef (he is in my view) and a businessman....mixing these two attributes is mighty difficult !.

Our ability to laugh at adversity is what makes us British.

cynners, our local SBRY is great. Lots of choice, much more friendly than TSCO, excellent fishmonger, terrific deals on wines, and nice to see them employing older people on the tills - they actually seem to give a f***!! :-)

"they actually seem to give a f***!!" Blimey - never seen that on offer in TESCO :-)

Same in Aberdeen splat, Tesco and Sainsbury seem to be having a competition as to who can open the most express stores.

.

if i am forced to buy in a supermarket, then easy first choice is waitrose ...... i have only ever been into tesco in henley, and i was surprised how good it was ..... as i said earlier, sainsbury's in marlow is dire; they have really missed a trick here by failing dismally to attack and attract an intrinsically (reasonably) moneyed local clientele ..... locals still go to the local (and now small) waitrose, or go to henley or beaconsfield for waitrose, or high wycombe for tesco

i have yet to go into a morrison's, but i believe that despite the awful cheap-looking logo,
they have carved themselves a niche for good value, quality fresh produce

Seems the little stores are attracting more customers as people only buying what they need rather than filling the freezer and cupboards with stock (& therefore tying up cash). Lots of Co-oP's, Budgens, One-Stops and Tesco Express opened in Norfolk over the last year or so.
