Totally agree! I think it selfish for some people to want only this "landscape of peace and tranquility" on a Sunday. Many people suffering from depression, particularly those living alone, are badly affected by the loneliness a Sunday can effect. For some people the hustle and bustle of shopping would be a "Godsend" (please excuse the pun). Anyway, is it really so heinous for people to want to shop for food in a supermarket after 4 pm on a Sunday?

By the way if someone does want a Sunday off, what's stopping us giving a couple of quid to those poor people on the sole to work every Sunday as cover? Nature offers us many solutions if we are prepared to be broad-minded.
