I've been passing by this old alcohol retailer for a while, always wondering if it's still "alive" or not.  I wonder because of the very old, partially broken vending machines. Although someone seem to live inside. One day I found an answer : some guy was filling up the vending machines.
So the shop probably passed away, while the machines continue their work... before ruling the world someday ;-)
