Our local Albert Heijn supermarket closed recently for 10 days for renovations. The only thing they appear to have changed significantly is their opening hours -- which I discovered when I turned up just after 9 pm to get some eggs and milk, only to find that they were closed. Perhaps they've done a deal with the extortionately expensive avondwinkel (night shop) just down the street and are taking a cut from all the additional sales. Easier and more profitable, one suspects, than actually keeping their store open.
Oh well, at least it gave me a chance to see several cats on route and the police talking to one of the belligerent drunks that hangs out next to the recycling bins.
