Saw these stories on the BBC news website and had to smile - poor old Asda is really not having luck in the Highlands. Both these refer to new stores planned for Inverness.

I've got a mental image of Tesco staff carefully removing everything of interest and dumping it on the Asda site! I'm guessing there'll have to be a proper investigation of the Asda site now, while the Tesco site will be allowed to continue.
