This might interest you. It's a chart of shops based on page views on the main site.

Huh?! ...A shop in Kerkrade beat Grey Area and the Bulldog? ...How counter-intuitive of it....

...Anyone actually been to Down Under in Kerkrade?

...Does it have some unique features or strains or something?

...What am i missing here?

[Lemming]

It's close to the German border and has plenty of car parking space.

Actually, this is getting a bit weird now. A more recent snapshot has Down Under in Kerkrade as the most popular shop of all!

Digging into the stats it appears that most of the visitors are from Germany, as expected, and found the page via a Google search so it's not that a popular site is directing lots of people there.

I'm intrigued!

Very interesting stuff indeed, the explanation that it is German border-hoppers seems reasonable (but the fact that it is so pronounced is a little weird), and most of the list kinda makes sense seen in the light of lemmings guesses, the different shops' profile and maybe factors such as alphabetical order on the lists, but there are a few curious entries...

Any guesses wrt "the store"?

[Lemming]

The Store is what used to be The Doors, if that's what you were asking.

Interesting suggestion about alphabetical order. I hadn't thought of that one.
