With most ASDA stores I've visited now having newer cases of Matchbox coming on stream it seems my time is up for finding yet more examples of this Jeep Wagoneer! :-(
Rather like the 1964 Ford Fairlane Wagon I just couldn't leave any of these behind, I must have a serious addiction to fake wood appliqué! Boxy, rugged but ultimately quite a sharp suited looker MBX have captured this classic pseudo Range Rover competitor perfectly right down to aforementioned wood appliqué!
Bought from ASDA back in April. Mint and boxed.
found this at our local bottle bank recycling - never send me to a dump, I always bring back more than I take.
Well it did say "Grab and Go' on the counter.......I thought thats what it meant.
Caught in the 'nick' of time by Fluffy.........
(Thanks to Asda for their willingness in order to take these photos!!!)
The first few times I used my Asda 'bag for life' I left the receipts in the bottom of the bag. After I gathered a few I made a point of it and resolved never to take them out.
I must have about a hundred in there now. Maybe it really is time to go back on my word.
I've got quite attached to them now though!
The crane in the centre of image is involved in construction work behind Asda, the nature of which I am uncertain of.
Behind the tip of the crane is the Stagecoach Bus Depot. A new depot is being built further up Somerset (Grange) Road for them. When it is completed, the old depot will be demolished to make way fir a “super” Lidl. Past the depot, Edlogan Way goes over the railway line and on to Llanyravon and Croesyceiliog.
This trolley struggled up Wodside Road for a pint only to find the pub is closed down. Never mind, it will probably end up cooling off in the canal.

In 2010 ASDA bought the UK stores of Netto; they started converting them in 2011. This one at Manor Top is one of the first in Yorkshire to be converted.
ASDA have a big share of the "large" supermarket business, but in recent years Tesco and Sainsburys have moved into the "small" shops end of the market too, to increase their market share. Whilst hypermarkets will always do well in the UK, they aren't suitable for many people, and there's been a new focus by the big companies at "local" shops (where they may be able to sell things for more money for those unable to drive to out-of-town hypermarkets and pay for a £100 trolley of goods - the "top up" market of those spending £10/£20 a time can be just as lucrative)
This is the (in)famous £70 Asda bicycle. Or as one journalist referred to it - 'bicycle shaped object'.
The one where they had to pull the TV ad 2 weeks ago, as they had the forks on the wrong way round, which is potentially dangerous - should it be ridden like that.

This is why you shouldn't buy your next bicycle from a supermarket. A *proper* bicycle shop, with it's properly trained technicians wouldn't do this.
