LETTERS – New store is very much on the way

Work is proceeding very slowly at the construction site in Fleet Street in Holbeach, but on Tuesday I happened to ask a member of staff at the Spalding branch when the new store in Holbeach would be opening. She said that they had been told it’s to be January 30. That’s still about three months away, but, if true, it’s happening, folks!
It can’t come soon enough to deflate Tesco’s virtual monopoly and high prices.
