Albert Heijn. Note that I wrote the letter between the 'e' and the 'n' as the
Dutch ligature 'ij'. When I learned to write, the 'ij' was the letter between
'x' and 'z' in the Dutch alfabet. Old (<1960) Dutch typewriters had a dedicated
key for it.
Nowadays the 'ij' has been replaced bij the two letter combination 'ij'. Trying
to revive it is a hobby horse of mine,

And yes, Albert Heijn is a major super market here. The market leader in fact.

NB> Why would he be open on Boxing day?
So that I can buy beer and other stuff of course. ;-)
NB> Or did google translate fail me?
Only in regard to the spelling of "Heijn".
