There is another shop up the road, but it’s a crap shop with hardly anything in. Plus he is probably banned from that one as well.

This guy is in his 30s/40s and has only ever asked for milk or bread. The shop workers don’t seem to mind (they shout at him if he goes near the door though
), it’s just a pain in the arse if he is around as you try and go into the shop. I assume he was banned for shoplifting or being abusive. Or maybe Preezy is right and he is a fiddler. I should man up and tell him no, but it is awkward and he is probably a violent killer.
