Not quite daily bread

Haven't baked a load for a while, so did this one today. I was too impatient and cut into before it had cooled so it's a bit crumpled. I've often though, or perhaps I picked it up from someone, that buying a loaf everyday is the key difference between our society and that of France. In France that daily act keeps people local, they engage with small shops, which prevents large chains moving in, it means they chat to people everyday and have a greater sense of knowing their neighbours, etc. In Britain we buy a great big doughy loaf to last the week from Tesco.
